The National CVIPI Center TTA Request tool is critical for our ability to assess community violence intervention (CVI) needs in the field and to help prioritize delivery of TTA topics. During this reporting period, LISC received and responded to 54 TTA requests from the field. LISC continues to track, analyze and report these requests
regularly to BJA.
National CVIPI Center staff attended the 2024 NCJA Forum on Criminal Justice, presenting with OJP Leadership (Eddie Bocanegra) and state leaders (Damon Bocante, NY and Colleen Curtin, CA) on state CVI training and technical assistance efforts. Panel was attended by about 75 participants and was met with great interest from the field. LISC and BJA have discussed potential future efforts to be more intentional about utilizing the CVIPI Center to support state CVI efforts.
LISC attended the 2024 PSP Summit as an exhibitor. There, we engaged DOJ Public Safety Partnership (PSP) grantees from around the country and shared National CVIPI Center resources and explored potential opportunities for future engagement with the National CVIPI Center.
LISC delivered a presentation for Friends Committee on National Legislation (FCNL) to about 32 staff from CVI organizations on federal resources for CVI organizations and discussed capacity building around application development. The symposium was designed to bring together violence interrupters (VI) from various programs across the nation for mutual learning, collaboration, and advocacy.

The District of the US Virgin Islands requested assistance with their PSN strategy. From April 15-18, 2024 the CNA TTA team sent representatives to the USAO’s in the US Virgin Islands to complete a strategic planning session with PSN stakeholders, a crime analysis capacity assessment, a research partner working session, and an in-depth information session and PSN working session for the USAO, Natasha Baker.
The goal of this training and technical assistance is to provide the Greensboro Police Department with an assessment of their youth violence reduction capabilities and provide recommendations for improvement.
The CJP team will walk through all components of the Byrne SCIP funding, including the pass-through requirements, advisory board requirements, allowable programming, examples of approved funding, and TTA available from our team and other providers.
