Minorities Underrepresented in Criminal Justice Alternatives

While white Nebraskans are often equally represented in arrests as well as criminal justice alternatives like problem solving courts, community based intervention or community based resources, minorities are less likely to see equal representation. Figures are averaged percentages from 2014-2019 (population), 2014-2016 (community based intervention), 2014-2017 (community based resources and participation in problem solving courts).
