“Working with Recidiviz has opened my eyes to a world of possibilities for fixing this system that has taken so much from so many people. They ask for my opinions about real tools that are helping other people in my community who’ve been through something like I’ve been through.  It makes me feel like I endured all of it for something: to make things just a little better for others.”

“It is important to include the voices of those directly impacted by incarceration, unfortunately, it's not something that is commonly practiced, but one of the most important components to create a supervision experience that is more conducive towards an overall successful reentry and life beyond.”

“Being a part of Recidiviz’s user experience research process has shown me that Recidiviz actually cares about giving a voice to the voiceless. Voice is power. In doing this, they are empowering our communities to be active participants in this collective healing.”

“Every time Recidiviz is thinking of launching a new product that affects people on supervision, I’m asked to share my opinions about it. They walk me through the tools they are building and how they think supervision officers might use them and I get to share my own stories and experiences to inform the design decisions.”

“The Recidiviz team is wonderful at really listening to what we have to say and turning that into a tangible tool to benefit our everyday work goals.”

“Recidiviz tools are helping me to get ahead of the game so that I can spend more time working with people who need employment or have substance use needs.”

“Recidiviz’s collaboration and insight has pushed our agency light-years into using data to drive decision making!”

“Recidiviz tools can really help us have an impact. If we know this far down in the weeds what’s causing poor outcomes, fixing it is the easy part. With this data, we can make strides at improving outcomes at the root of the issues.”

“This tool has come so far since we first started working together earlier this year. Soliciting our input and then putting it in action and making it something that we enjoy to use has been fantastic.”

“Recidiviz tools give me a “to do list” and I don’t have to spend my time creating a list. This has made things more convenient.”
