We find that after Illinois reformed its law in 2017, employment increased in licensed occupations while crime fell, indicating that both households and communities benefited from more opportunities for employment in the formal labor market.
We at the The Knee Center are continuing to work on more research in this space and would love to connect with other folks working on criminal justice reforms and studies.
