How do they accomplish such feats without electronic monitoring or risk-assessment algorithms?
"We call our model 'community release with support,'" Steinberg explains, "a simple version of release on recognizance supplemented by effective court reminders, referrals to voluntary social services, and client advocacy."
Ultimately, the Bail Project advocates that cash bail should not be replaced by other systems that coerce defendants into showing up for court, but by methods that actually help them show up for court. The organization's vision for whom these methods should extend to—whether high risk or low risk—is straightforward as well. As Steinberg puts it: "We believe everyone—regardless of wealth, race, and, yes, accusation—should be entitled to the same presumption of innocence and treated with respect and dignity."
