CLEAR Consultation Service
Through our Consultation Service, CLEAR provides expert guidance and technical assistance for economic evaluations in criminal-legal settings. Following an introductory call to discuss project goals, consultees are matched to a relevant expert for ongoing support. The CLEAR team will check-in with both parties periodically to monitor progress, and will conduct a brief service evaluation upon completion.
