The Bureau of Justice Programs (BJA) State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial (SLTT) Information Sharing Technical Assistance Program is a collaborative effort with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), in partnership with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and experts from the state and local community—including the Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative (Global) and the Criminal Intelligence Coordinating Council (CICC). These entities have worked together to facilitate the development of SLTT intelligence and analytic capabilities. Through discrete, targeted activities such as workshops, seminars, information sharing exchanges, guidance documents, and technical assistance offerings, this consortium has achieved significant success in providing the support necessary to assist the SLTT partners in improving their capability and capacity as required by and in accordance with national policy guidance, including the National Strategy for Information Sharing (NSIS), the Fusion Center Guidelines, and the Baseline Capabilities for State and Major Urban Area Fusion Centers.
The purpose of the SLTT Information Sharing Technical Assistance Program is to capitalize on the successes of this consortium to facilitate the development of SLTT intelligence and analytic capabilities, as well as the increased levels of experience and expertise that are being gained from the collaborative efforts of DHS and DOJ. This program is designed to support the standardization and promulgation of information sharing practices, as well as the identification and sharing of SLTT promising practices and lessons learned.
