Association for Criminal Justice Research and Development

The Association for Criminal Justice Research and Development (ACJRD) is an independent organisation that serves as a forum in which criminal justice policy issues can be raised. It holds regular meetings on criminal policy research and is one of the few forums where all the major stakeholders in criminal policy are represented and come together to share ideas, information and research findings. It holds an annual conference on a topic of particular relevance to the criminal justice community. It publishes reports on a regular basis.

The ACJRD is established as a company limited by guarantee with seven directors, including key personnel from the criminal justice system and the judiciary, as well as other interested individuals.
