Building upon the prior IGSR report (Process Evaluation of Call-in Meetings Conducted in Maryland under Project Safe Neighborhoods), this report assesses the impact of call-in meetings on the recidivism of participants attending the meetings. Encompassing five Maryland jurisdictions, the call-in meetings target newly-released parolees with histories of gun-related and violent offenses. The areas of focus covered in this report include recidivism of call-in participants, recidivism reductions comparisons between study groups, and factors affecting recidivism and recidivism reduction comparisons between study groups.
