Statistics


Recidivism Rate

76% of youth incarcerated in NYS OCFS Detention Centers will have a new arrest for a criminal offense within 12 months of their release from custody. Youth who graduated the Bronx Connect ATI (Alternative-to-Incarceration) Supreme Court program had a one-year recidivism rate of only 17%.

Long Term Success

A 2010 long-term study of PhillyConnect ATI graduates showed that after one year, 96% remained felony conviction free. After three years, 91% remained felony conviction free, and after five years, 88% remained free of felony reconviction. These statistics are even more powerful when it is understood that these youth graduated free of a felony conviction, having earned a Youthful Offender status in our program. An overwhelming majority of our alumni are able to enter adulthood without a felony charge holding them down.
