Welcome to Criminal Justice Access

Greetings Everyone,

For March 2021 at CJ Access (criminaljusticeaccess.com), the accent is on sexual violence. Check out Research Briefs to gain some insight into the risk factors for child sex trafficking and exploitation, understand the link between violent cognitive frameworks and violent behavior, explore the little researched area of male sexual victimization that occurs by being forced to penetrate someone, in both its connection to intimate partner violence and in the experiences of those victimized, and finally look into whether a restorative justice approach is appropriate in sexual and family violence cases.
