A criminal justice coordinating council (CJCC) is the general term used to describe a body of elected and senior justice system leaders that convene on a regular basis to coordinate systemic responses to justice problems. In addition to the members of the CJCCs, administrative support and planning is provided by a coordinator or director, either from one of the agencies in the CJCC or dedicated and funded by the county for this purpose. While CJCCs differ widely in their membership and structure, appropriate and dedicated staff is essential to success. However, while the need for dedicated staff is universal, the structure of their roles and background or experience of these staff members is not.For this blog, partners at the National Network of Criminal Justice Coordinating Councils (NNCJCC) worked with Network members to get a better idea of how staffing looks in each of their CJCCs.
