Located on the Gulf Coast of Texas, Harris County has a population of more than 4.5 million residents making it the most populous county in Texas and third most populous county in the nation. Harris County is implementing several strategies to reduce its jail population safely, including implementing a pretrial assessment tool, starting a Responsive Interventions for Change (RIC) docket and increasing staff to address racial and ethnic disparities.
