Data & Research

Courts shall collect, at a minimum a mandatory set of performance measures determined by the Council of Accountability Court Judges which shall be provided quarterly to the Standards and Certification Committee. The CACJ Accountability Courts Data Collection Manual should be utilized each quarter as a guide to collecting state required data metrics. Please be sure to communicate with Rachel Gage, Director of Data & Research, if you have questions about data collection.

Certified courts and tracks are assigned a CACJ legal name and program identifier. Both shall be used for all CACJ documentation, including but not limited to quarterly data reporting and quality assurance processes, grant applications, surveys, e-mail communication, peer review, and certification.
