The Higher Education in Prison Cohort Program is part of the Higher Education in Prison Landscape Project, a partnership between the Alliance for Higher Education in Prison, the Research Collaborative for Higher Education in Prison at the University of Utah (Erin Castro, Director) and the University of California Berkeley’s Goldman School of Public Policy (Amy Lerman, Professor). The Landscape Project serves the mission of the Alliance by working to understand and report on the landscape of higher education in prison programs. The primary goals of this project are to support the emerging field of higher education in prison by bringing together aggregate data on programs, creating a central hub of information, and working with programs from around the country.
The 2019-2021 cohort represents the diversity of the higher education in prison stakeholder community, including credit and non-credit bearing programs, degree and non-degree granting programs, various institutional types, geographic locations, and types of facilities; size of program; diversity of staff, leadership, and program participants; and existing program infrastructure.
