Welcome to NYAPSA.
I’m proud to serve as President of the New York Association of Pretrial Service Agencies at an important time for pretrial work in New York. Our organization is focused on strengthening connections across the state, supporting the professionals doing this work every day, and building a stronger voice for pretrial services moving forward.
We’re glad you’re here, and we look forward to continuing that work together.

President, NYAPSA

Data Collaborative on Criminal Justice at John Jay College has released data on statewide failure to Appear. As their study points out, This study documents failure to appear (FTA) rates among New Yorkers released at arraignment and identifies factors linked to higher or lower FTA. In several respects, the findings point to a mismatch between courts’ current bail decisions and actual risk of FTA.
The criminal justice process starts in pretrial. By supporting community-based alternatives to pretrial incarceration, we can build a safe and effective system that ensures fair justice for all.
NYAPSA is the central link between dozens of New York counties, national pretrial groups, and criminal justice departments. This broad network leads to unparalleled cooperation and innovation.
