This award was established in 2019 to acknowledge exceptional research in corrections. The award is named in honor of Benjamin Steiner, an outstanding scholar and longstanding member of DCS. Donations go to supporting the Ben Steiner Excellence in Corrections Student Paper Award, an award given to a student member in recognition of the most outstanding student research paper. Tax-deductible donations can be made to the fund. All donations will be acknowledged on the DCS website. Donors may also pledge anonymous gifts.

Donations may be made online using our donation form (click here). At the bottom of the page, you’ll see a link that says “donation form.” You’ll then log in to your ASC account and can provide the amount you would like to donate. Check the box above the donation amount if you do not wish to be listed as a donor on our website.

If you prefer to pay by check, please note on the check what your donation is for and mail to:
American Society of Criminology
1314 Kinnear Rd., Ste. 212
Columbus, OH 43212
