The Bureau of Justice Statistics has released a dataset on corrections statistics through the National Archive of Criminal Justice Data. The National Corrections Reporting Program (NCRP) collects offender-level data on admissions and releases from state and federal prisons and post-confinement community supervision. This dataset contains information on all persons admitted to state prison, released from state prison, or in state prison at year-end from 1991 to 2018 in the United States.
The Bureau of Justice Statistics of the U.S. Department of Justice is the principal federal agency responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating reliable statistics on crime and criminal justice in the United States. Doris J. James is the acting director.
