About Us
The Forum on Criminal Justice is hosted by the National Criminal Justice Association (NCJA). We are proud to be joined in planning this year by SEARCH and Justice Information Resource Network (JIRN).
NCJA
The National Criminal Justice Association promotes the development of justice systems in states, tribal nations, and units of local government that enhance public safety; prevents and reduces the harmful effects of criminal and delinquent behavior on victims, individuals, and communities; adjudicates defendants and sanctions offenders fairly and justly; and that are effective and efficient.
SEARCH
SEARCH, The National Consortium for Justice Information and Statistics, is a nonprofit organization governed by a Membership Group of governor appointees from the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and the territories.
SEARCH has 53 years of experience supporting the information sharing, information technology, cybercrime investigative and digital forensics, and criminal records systems needs of State, local and tribal justice and public safety agencies and practitioners nationwide.
JIRN
The Justice Information Resource Network (JIRN) is a national non-profit and resource center for researchers, analysts, journalists, and practitioners of justice research. We produce nonpartisan, reputable, and comprehensive research exploring today’s crucial issues across the justice spectrum.
JIRN provides access to research, learning programs, and networking opportunities tailored for justice researchers. At JIRN, we empower our members to achieve more by providing resources tailored to their needs.
