State of the Criminal Justice System Methodology Report
Dissemination and Awareness Strategies
JUS developed a communications strategy specifically for the first launch of the State of the Criminal Justice System Report and Dashboard in order to:
- inform the Canadian public and those involved in the CJS community with clear, relevant and transparent information available on CJS outcomes and indicators;
- ensure the Dashboard meets the needs of its users;
- acknowledge and respond to areas where information/data gaps have been identified; and,
- enable collaboration with key stakeholder groups to address areas requiring improvement.
The communications strategy involved promoting the availability of the Report and Dashboard, both internally and externally with the public and stakeholders through various activities such as using social media to dissemination information (see example in Image 4) and conducting face-to-face presentations to key CJS partners. Other communications activities included information kiosks at relevant CJS conferences (see example in Image 5).
