This volume offers a collection of chapters exploring a range of research collaborations within the field of sentencing and corrections, focusing on both process and results. Chapters cover partnerships between people and organizations with different trainings, backgrounds, and/or purposes, such as academics in different fields, practitioners, policymakers, and those with and without lived experience in the justice system, with mental health issues, and/or with substance use disorders. The range of sentencing and corrections agencies includes courts, diversion programs or alternatives to incarceration, community supervision departments, and correctional institutions.

Contributions provide valuable insights into the development of such partnerships, highlighting effective strategies, identifying key factors that contribute to successful collaborations, and addressing challenges alongside practical solutions. The sections are organized to focus on critical aspects of collaboration, including the processes of working together in the field, advancing partnerships, achieving desired outcomes, and bridging the gap between academic research and its application by policymakers, practitioners, and the broader public.

The volume shines a light on the importance and impact of collaborating across differences in sentencing and corrections and advances best practices for achieving successful partnerships. This is Volume 11 of The ASC Division on Corrections and Sentencing Handbook Series. The handbooks provide in-depth coverage of seminal and topical issues around sentencing and corrections for scholars, students, practitioners, and policymakers.

"The Handbook on Corrections and Sentencing volume “Collaborating Across Differences in Sentencing and Corrections,” is a literal handbook for establishing and maintaining ethical, engaged, and truly collaborative partnerships in research across an array of contexts within courts and corrections. The editors have brought together an impressive group of contributors who have decades of collective experience, who share their experiences from a variety of perspectives, and who offer insights into the unique challenges that often confront those seeking to not just do translational work, but to do it well. The volume covers it all: the when, the why, the how (and the how-not!) of every aspect of collaborating from nurturing relationships, to establishing and maintaining partnerships, to ensuring their longevity. The consistent emphasis across contributions is rightly on the importance of ensuring mutual benefit in partnerships, whether between researchers, practitioners, community groups, and/or individuals with lived experience. Those interested in ensuring their justice system work has impact must engage in collaborative partnerships to effectively do so and will surely return to this handbook again and again."
Natasha Frost, Professor, Northeastern University, President, American Society of Criminology

 "This much needed resource brings together practitioners and researchers to delve into the details of criminal justice collaborations - successes, lessons learned, and tricks of the trade. The chapters highlight the strengths of practitioners and their on the ground expertise of people directly impacted by the criminal justice system, and researchers who have broad in depth knowledge across programs and practices." 
Eileen M. Ahlin, Ph.D. Professor, Criminal Justice, Interim Director, School of Public Affairs, Penn State Harrisburg

"This comprehensive and authoritative handbook explores the challenges posed by collaborative partnerships and describes the salient lessons learned from partnerships involving courts and correctional institutions in the United States and elsewhere. The 25 papers included in the volume illustrate how researchers and practitioners can effectively partner to translate research into policy and practice." 
Cassia Spohn, PhD, Regents Professor School of Criminology and Criminal Justice, Arizona State University

"Effective implementation of evidence-based policy and practice continues to be among the most pressing challenges facing justice agencies and, by extension, crime and justice researchers. Rather than just assert the importance of research and practitioner partnership, the Eleventh ASC Division of Corrections and Sentencing Handbook, edited by Ruhland, Lane, Baldwin, and Nellis, blends research and accounts of lived experience to assess where we are and chart a path forward. The chapters included in this volume touch on all aspects of building and sustaining vital partnerships. This handbook is an essential resource for anyone interested in evidence-based sentencing and corrections."
Chris Sullivan, Department Chair. Professor, Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice, University of Missouri-St. Louis
