Objective
Goals: The goal is to assist agencies in reducing violent crime and support law enforcement through officer safety, enhance the ability to identify, target, and remove criminal conspiracies and activities spanning multi-jurisdictional, multi-state, and sometime international boundaries. While the RISS Centers operate independently and are tailored to support the unique needs of the region served, they also operate as a collective body to address national criminal justice issues. RISS is governed by a National Policy Group comprised of the six RISS Directors and the Chair of each regional center’s board of directors. The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), administers the RISS Program.
Objectives: The primary objective for RISS is to promote and strengthen relationships and strategies for the administration of justice with law enforcement agencies, organizations, prosecutors, and defenders through innovative leadership and programs. This objective also includes providing training, technical assistance, and resources in support of the program’s goals.
