1. Describe the decision (what is it?); 
2. State the objective considerations of the decision maker when making the decision; and 
3. State how this decision relates to and/or furthers the mission of the criminal justice system. 
II. Minority Population/Statistics 
1. Identify a minority population that is disproportionately represented at the decision-making 
point you chose in Section I. This should be the same population that was selected in 
Submission 1: Law Enforcement, and Submission 2: Courts.

disproportionate representation of the identified minority population at the 
identified decision making point.

experiences disparate treatment at the selected decision-making point. 
IV. Established Program/Policy 
1. Identify and describe at least one (1) program/policy/practice that seeks to reduce the 
disproportionate minority representation at the selected decision-making point. 
2. If the program/policy is established, assess the effectiveness of the program/policy/practice 
that seeks to reduce the disproportionate minority representation at the selected decision- 
making point. (What are the results of the program? How have people benefited? How 
many people have benefited? If possible, share statistics related to results of the program.) 
3. If the program/policy is new, provide the rationale as to why the projected practice will be 
effective. 
V. Student Proposed Program/Policy
