NCIA develops practical, individually tailored alternative sentencing
proposals designed to eliminate or mitigate the use of imprisonment.
Our reports seek to balance the goals of sentencing (punishment,
deterrence, and rehabilitation) through the presentation of client
background information, character statements, and other mitigating
information. In addition, NCIA has specific expertise with the Federal
Sentencing Guidelines, and we use that knowledge to assist our clients
in navigating the complex Federal sentencing system. Should the
Court determine that a term of incarceration is necessary, we maintain
extensive files on the Federal prison system that help to ease the
transition to prison life. We also work extensively in state court
systems nationwide and have an active parole advocacy practice.
