This tool is used by the NYC Department of Correction to classify newly admitted individuals as either high or low risk of reoffending within 12 months of release. Those identified as high risk are offered targeted support services — including case management and connections to community resources — funded by a Department of Justice grant. The tool runs approximately weekly and is used by program staff to allocate services; it does not make automatic decisions about custody or sentencing.
