Description

The Administrative Office of the Courts’ Planning and Effective Programs Unit seeks the services of a consultant to assist in completing Phase 2 of the project, “Trust and Confidence in the California Courts.” Phase 1 of the project resulted in the September 2005 publication, Trust and Confidence in the California Courts, A Survey of the Public and Attorneys, a report for the Judicial Council by the National Center for State Courts.

These research strategies must be brought to bear on issues of public trust and confidence in the courts that were identified in Phase 1 of the project.
