Study Summary
The purpose of the Multisite Evaluation of the Honest Opportunity Probation with Enforcement Demonstration Field Experiment (the HOPE DFE Evaluation) is to conduct a randomized control trial (RCT) replication of the original Hawaii HOPE program and evaluation. The HOPE program provides strict oversight of probationers through a HOPE Court judge and intensive probation supervision, including random drug testing, coupled with swift and certain sanctions in response to positive results on random drug tests and other violations of conditions of supervision. The HOPE DFE Evaluation is being conducted among probation populations in four sites and will identify the effectiveness of swift and certain sanctions on targeted outcomes, both primary (appointment no-shows, positive urine tests, re-arrest rates) and secondary (revocation rates, jail days served, prison days sentenced).
Primary Outcome
Multiple measures to include percent positive for (1) marijuana, (2) cocaine, (3) heroin, (4) methamphetamine, and (5) any illegal drug on an oral swab drug test administered in conjunction with the 6 month follow-up interview (subjects in the community, i.e. not jailed or institutionalized, only).
