Project Safe Neighborhoods Technical Assistance

Under a cooperative agreement with the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), U. S. Department of Justice, ILJ serves as technical assistance (TA) contractor for Community Engagement in Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN). PSN is a nationwide commitment to reduce gun crime led by United States Attorneys in each of the 94 federal judicial districts. ILJ provides customized TA—including assessments and other consulting services—to help PSN task forces involve the community; and is developing related products, including a “how to” monograph (“Engaging the Community in Project Safe Neighborhoods”), a Community Engagement Self-Assessment Guide, and other tools designed to facilitate community involvement.
