TREC Program and Policy Maps

TREC created three maps to display programs and policies recommended by TREC that are in practice in local communities across the state: 1. TREC Recommended Program Map; 2. Judicial Policy Map; and 3. Law Enforcement Policy Map. Each map displays various programs and policies so community members and leaders can explore the resources in place in their community and their neighbor’s. This allows directly impacted people to get access to necessary programs and take advantage of policies in force. It also promotes peer learning by enabling local government policymakers to connect to those who have already implemented a proposed policy.

For service providers or system actors: If you wish to add your program or policy, please fill out the form linked here: https://forms.office.com/g/zAaPKiFcVt.
