On February 22, the Smart Policing Initiative (SPI) will present a webinar on “The Benefits of Collaborative Policing.” This policing approach – which combines collaboration with problem solving and evidence-based policing – builds community trust, support, and cooperation while achieving more effective and long-lasting crime reduction benefits.
In this webinar, hosted by the Council for State Governments (CSG) Justice Center, officials from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) and the CSG Justice Center will explain the fiscal year (FY) 2017 Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Program (JMHCP) solicitation and its application process.
One key goal of the BJA Smart Policing Initiative is improvement in the rigor with which policing strategies and innovations are evaluated. This roundtable discussion will focus on the research methodologies employed in several Smart Policing sites, the challenges encountered with implementing sound research designs in operational settings, and the ways in which the Smart Policing sites are meeting and overcoming these challenges.
