Alaska Criminal Justice Data Analysis Commission
The Alaska Criminal Justice Data Analysis Commission was created by House Bill 291 and became effective on September 27, 2022. The Commission, which consists of sixteen members, has a sunset date of June 30, 2029. Staffing for the Commission is provided by the Alaska Judicial Council.
The Commission’s research agenda and priorities are based on Article I, Sections 7 and 24 of the Alaska Constitution, and the issues of most pressing concern to the criminal justice system. The Commission is required to conduct data analysis, research, reports, or studies necessary to understand the functions, operations, and outcomes of the criminal justice system, and to identify areas for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the criminal justice system. The Commission also shall track and assess outcomes and trends in the criminal justice system. If requested by the legislature, the governor, or the chief justice of the supreme court, the Commission may provide the results of data analysis, studies, or research or make recommendations for improving criminal sentencing practices and criminal justice practices, including rehabilitation and restitution. The Commission shall design and implement a project to study risk factors related to criminal activity. The Commission submits an annual report to the governor and legislature on November 1 of each year, beginning in 2023.
