Issue One-Pagers
State and local governments use funding from the Byrne/JAG
grant program to deal with some of the nation's most pressing
criminal justice issues. To illustrate the importance of this grant
program NCJA has developed a series of issue papers describing how
states have led the nation in developing solutions to national criminal
justice problems, like methamphetmine use/abuse; combating gangs;
offender reentry; and sex offender management using these Byrne/JAG
funds. In addition, these funds have been crucial to the development and
implementation of multi-jurisdictional task forces and criminal justice
information sharing projects.
NCJA members distributed these one-pagers to Congressional
staffers on our annual Hill Day. We encourage you to use this
information in your own advocacy and educational efforts as well. In
addition, please continue to send us examples of how your states are
using Byrne/JAG money to address these important issues.
