The Justice Research and Statistics Association (JRSA) is a national nonprofit organization of state Statistical Analysis Centers (SACs), researchers, and practitioners throughout government, academia, and justice organizations. JRSA members form a network of justice professionals dedicated to policy-relevant research and practice. The association was created in 1974 to promote cooperation and the exchange of criminal justice information among the states.
