Turns out that some criminal justice interventions DO work! Our new research paper finds that supervising ex-prisoners in England & Wales after release cuts reoffending substantially - and the benefits outweigh the costs by at least 2:1! Read more in the thread below.

New! @MGehrsitz & @MWillJr examine the effects of education on health. Exploiting a raising of school age (ROSLA) reform, they find that education reduces hospitalizations. Health improvements are strongest for life-style related conditions and among men. journals.uchicago.edu/doi/ep…
