Among all U.S. adults, 1 in 31 is involved with the criminal justice system, many of them having had recurring encounters.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe ability to measure the effects of criminal justice involvement and incarceration on health and health disparities has been a challenge, due largely to limited and inconsistent measures on criminal justice involvement and any data on incarceration in health data collections. The presence of a myriad of confounding factors, such as socioeconomic status and childhood disadvantage, also makes it hard to isolate and identify a causal relationship between criminal justice involvement and health. The Bureau of Justice Statistics collects periodic health data on the people who are incarcerated at any given time, but few national-level surveys have captured criminal justice system involvement for people previously involved in the system or those under community supervision--nor have they collected systematic data on the effects that go beyond the incarcerated individuals themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn March 2016 the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop meant to assist the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE) and Office of the Minority Health (OMH) in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in identifying measures of criminal justice involvement that will further their understanding of the socioeconomic determinants of health. Participants investigated the feasibility of collecting criminal justice experience data with national household-based health surveys. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e National Academies of Sciences Engineeri,Division of Behavioral and Social Scienc,Committee on National Statistics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0309453372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780309453370\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e National Academies Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/13\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.80w x 0.30d","brand":"National Academies of Sciences Engineeri","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447693914367,"sku":"9780309453370","price":58.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_97fbd4a2-20f3-491e-a456-c3a52d57a1d4.jpg?v=1777234179","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/improving-collection-of-indicators-of-national-academies-of-sciences-engineeri-9780309453370","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
