ASC Division on Corrections & Sentencing (DCS)

The ASC Division for Corrections and Sentencing (Current Chair: Eileen Ahlin) was established in November 1999 as a constituent unit of the American Society of Criminology. The Division for Corrections and Sentencing brings together scholars, practitioners, students, and policy-makers to facilitate and encourage research pertaining to sentencing, rehabilitation, punishment, community and institutional corrections, diversionary programs and alternatives. The DCS is governed by an Executive Board consisting of a Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary/Treasurer and three Executive Counselors. Doris MacKenzie was the first president of the division.
