  Presentation by Steve Aos on Using Evidence-based Public Policy to Reduce Incarceration, Crime, and Criminal Justice Costs
  ...
  Steve Aos, assistant director of the Washington State Institute for Public Policy, shared findings from his groundbreaking cost-benefit study in which he
  
  identifies evidence-based public policy options that can effectively reduce crime; estimates the benefits and costs associated with these options; and projects how investing in these options could decrease incarceration, save taxpayer dollars, and lower recidivism rates.
  
  Mr. Aos also discussed how his study changed the policy conversation in Washington State and its relevance for other jurisdictions.
  
  The Washington State Institute for Public Policy is an applied research group of the Washington State legislature. Steve Aos has 33 years of experience conducting cost-benefit analyses and communicating the results to a wide range of policymakers.

  Steve Aos, with the Washington Institute for Public Policy, the state agency that is staffing the Task Force, led off with his conclusions from the institute's two major lines of research on compensation and class size.The state's teacher salary schedule, which stretches incremental pay increases over 16 years, does not align well with the research that shows that the biggest gains in teacher effectiveness are in the first six years.A smarter system would aim to reward productivity gains, not simply years of service.On the issue of class size, the evidence is clear that reduced class sizes in grades K-3 matter.Mr. Aos even quantified the return on that investment: 10 to 16 percent over the lifetime of students.

  Yet even that modest reduction in crimes and prison yields cost benefits.
