Description

With this solicitation, BJA seeks to support training and technical assistance (TTA) providers assisting states to use the Justice Reinvestment Initiative (JRI) to enhance the fairness, effectiveness, and efficiency of their criminal justice system. JRI’s flexible, tailored, and data-driven approach helps states identify and implement policies that are customized to address each state’s specific challenges and the unique structure and dynamics within each of their systems. This program reduces crime and recidivism by helping states more effectively and equitably allocate resources to address pressing criminal justice challenges and improve system outcomes.
