Synthesizing the NCSC's Trust and Confidence Efforts
In a collaboration with the National Center for State Courts, John and Joe worked together to assemble, review, and synthesize the National Center's efforts to understand public trust and confidence in the state courts.
Members of the TRUSST Lab partner with a variety of organizations with a practical interest in trust as part of their day-to-day operations.
Active partnerships include a variety of state and local organizations working especially on criminal justice and environmental health issues. A list of our collaborations appear on the right.
In order to support the trust-relevant efforts of organizations like these, we have also compiled resources and initiated traineeships in which students are funded to work directly with a partner organization.
Organizations interested in partnering with the lab are encouraged to contact us at trusstlab@gmail.com.
