Justice

Justice system experts

As early adopters of the direct supervision corrections model more than thirty years ago, SMRT has been a leader in justice design for decades. Our expertise spans the spectrum of the justice system – corrections, courts and public safety facilities. We design to enable restorative justice, developing environments for special populations including female, juvenile, mental health, substance abuse, healthcare, reentry and pre-release.
