Arnold Ventures Criminal Justice Innovation Fellowships

The Arnold Ventures Criminal Justice Innovation Fellowships support post-doctoral fellows who are pursuing policy-relevant causal research designed to innovate and evaluate cost-effective and scalable policy solutions that advance the efficacy and equity of criminal justice practices. To secure more effective and equitable criminal justice practices, we need to innovate and evaluate new policy solutions that can be adopted by local, state, and federal policy makers. The fellowship is for a period of up to two years, beginning in September 2025. The Fellow will be expected to conduct research relevant to criminal justice practices in the United States, and will be required to devote up to 25% of their time to work on Arnold Ventures research projects. Fellows may reside in a location of their choosing and will receive a stipend of $120,000 with an additional supplement of $30,000 for benefits, research expenses, and travel.
