This awardee has received supplemental funding. This award detail page includes information about both the original award and supplemental awards.
The State Justice Statistics (SJS) Program is designed to maintain and enhance each state's capacity to address criminal justice issues through collection and analysis of data. The SJS Program provides support to each state to coordinate and conduct statistical activities within the state, conduct research to estimate impacts of legislative and policy changes, and serve as a liaison in assisting BJS to gather data from respondent agencies within their states.
Under this award, the Idaho Statistical Analysis Center (ISAC) plans to complete several activities: (1) redesign the ISAC website to include mapping capability; (2) develop a performance measurement tool to address public safety concerns in the state; and, (3) provide technical assistance and evaluation support to other criminal justice agencies conducting research projects. Funds will also be used to conduct a special data collection on justice issues occurring in Indian country. Data will be obtained from the Montana Statistical Analysis Center regarding crime occurring on Native American Reservations in Idaho. The project will specifically address the prevalence of domestic and family violence issues on the Reservation. CA/NCF
