Managing escalating justice costs, establishing effective jail medical policies, planning appropriate facilities for years to come: these complex public policy issues often afflict jurisdictions, consuming valuable resources and bogging down the system. In today's tough economic climate, this waste of money and manpower is something that many cities and counties simply cannot afford.

An expert like ILPP can help to manage these issues and bring the costs under control. In the past 25 years, we have saved clients over $1.5 billion. Our studies usually pay for themselves in just the first year, and provide similar savings on an ongoing basis.

While ILPP's project experience spans jurisdictions of all sizes with diverse problems, certain common threads run through all of its criminal justice, court, correctional, program evaluation, research, and facility planning work:

• Accurate and thorough characterization of the problem(s)
• Comprehensive assessment of possible solutions which are feasible (and implementable)
• Consideration of any fiscal impact on or needs of current and recommended courses of action
• Inclusion of all system decision makers in the plan implementation and the strategic planning process
