Investigate MeasuresForJustice as data source #20

Closed RickPoleshuck closed 2 years ago

RickPoleshuck commented 3 years ago

Research the possibility of coordinating with https://measuresforjustice.org/ about possible data sources? They don't have current data on their website. Newest seems to be 2017.

I would be actually interested in helping with this project, but replies to my post from 5 months ago tells me the project is not very active. I also was unable to set up a test and development environment without an ibm.com email address.

hey @RickPoleshuck let's connect further on this - we're still working on this, but been planning priorities. I'm going to message you in the slack community to get you connected.

demilolu commented 3 years ago

I think it might also be clearer if we have an assignee here. @sforsyth089 was this something you looked into already?

Still a good idea.

Sabine-Justilien commented 3 years ago

@RPoleshuck I'm happy to investigate this a bit more. I know that you also listed some other resources we may be able to tap into for data. It's on my list and I'll drop any feedback here as I get information.

sforsyth089 commented 2 years ago

Hi all, Closing this as we are tracking data investigation work on it's own issue, please continue any work on this and update there.

Update findings here: https://github.com/Call-for-Code-for-Racial-Justice/Open-Sentencing/issues/31

Thank you! Stacy
