  • Evaluation & Research Literature: the State of Knowledge on BJA
    Evaluation & Research Literature: The State of Knowledge on BJA-Funded Programs March 27, 2015 Overview The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) is a leader in developing and implementing evidence-based criminal justice policy and practice. BJA’s mission is to provide leadership in services and grant administration and criminal justice policy development to support local, state, and Tribal justice strategies to achieve safer communities. This is accomplished in many criminal justice topic areas, including adjudication, corrections, counter-terrorism, crime prevention, justice information sharing, law enforcement, justice and mental health, substance abuse, and Tribal justice. Under each topic area, BJA funds numerous programs and initiatives at the Tribal, local, and state level. In partnership with the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), other Federal partners, and many other research partners, many of these programs have been evaluated, while others have not. The intent of the following report is to assess the state of knowledge as determined by data collection, research, and evaluation of and related to BJA- funded programs. This report is a resource that can be a reference for both evaluation and research literature on many BJA programs. It also identifies programs and practices for which U.S. Department of Justice resources have played a critical role in generating innovative programs and sound practices. This report identifies programs and practices with a solid foundation of evidence, as well as those that may benefit from further research and evaluation. Program evaluation is a systematic, objective process for determining the success of a policy or program. Evaluations assess whether and to what extent the program is achieving its goals and objectives.

The HPOU Board believes that our organization is blessed with 5,200-plus loyal members. In 2012, we voted to start an annual family picnic for all members and their families to show our appreciation. It was held at Tin Hall in Cypress and was a huge success. By the time you read this article, the 2nd Annual Picnic will have concluded. We thank all of you who came out and made it a success. We hope it’s even bigger in 2014. As you can imagine, an event like this does not just happen without lots of help. While I know there were many who volunteered to make this a success, I would like to personally thank some key players who worked tirelessly on this project. The Houston Police Foundation’s newest benefactor is the Okra Charity Bar on Congress in downtown. Recently the bar’s management presented the foundation’s Charlene Floyd (in white) with a $25,000 check.
