Details
During this reporting period, FTTA Coaches, in collaboration with BJA, hosted multiple 1-hour virtual grantee focus groups. The focus groups were centered around the BJA-identified champion grantees within and across the five BJA grant programs. The guided discussions during the virtual sessions were designed to capture the major gaps and challenges identified by the champion grantees as related to each grant program. This information will lay the groundwork for assessing the specific champion grantee TTA needs and the generalized needs common to multiple grantees within a program. In addition to challenges, the focus group discussions also captured grantee success stories made possible by the specific grant funding program to highlight on the FTTA website. Table 1 details the calls FTTA staff held with the champion sites during this reporting period. Of note, the FTTA team was unable to schedule grantees focus group calls with representatives from the Prosecuting Cold Cases Using DNA program during this reporting period.
