This forum is an opportunity to be in conversation with Office of Justice Programs (OJP) leadership about its efforts to advance racial equity and reduce barriers to accessing OJP grants and programming for community-based organizations. It will also be an opportunity for participants to inform OJP about their community’s public safety needs and priorities.
OJP wants to hear from communities most impacted by public safety issues, and work together to advance the fair administration of justice, improve justice system responses and community engagement, ensure all victims get the assistance they need, and invest in community centered approaches and initiatives.
