The Criminal Justice Innovation Lab (CJIL) at the UNC School of Government is pleased to announce the launch of The Citation Project in 2020. The project seeks to improve policing practices through implementation and rigorous evaluation of citation in lieu of arrest pilot programs across North Carolina.

Today, the School of Government and University celebrate Veterans Day by honoring all those who have served in our nation’s armed forces.

The School is proud to recognize our faculty, staff, and Master of Public Administration students who are veterans of the United States military. The School would also like to take this opportunity to thank those among us who are currently serving as active duty members in the armed forces.

Ninety faculty and staff from UNC-Chapel Hill traveled across the state on October 16-18 on the Tar Heel Bus Tour, a three-bus journey to 26 towns and cities throughout North Carolina. Through the three-day, two-night trip, bus tour participants learned about the issues facing North Carolinians and the people who are working to effect change—including community members and their University partners.

Local Government Federal Credit Union, an ongoing supporter of the School's Development Finance Initiative (DFI), published an article in their membership magazine, Aim, titled "The Power of Partnership: How LGFCU and DFI Are Helping NC Towns Plan for Bright Futures."

School of Government faculty member Margaret Henderson is one of four finalists in the Voinovich Public Innovation Challenge.
