BJS seeks applications for funding to administer the Law Enforcement Core Statistics (LECS) Program. The LECS will focus on the organizational characteristics of law enforcement agencies (LEAs) to provide accurate and timely national statistics about the personnel, operations, policies, and procedures of federal, state, county, local, and tribal LEAs in the United States. The LECS Program includes BJS?s two core law enforcement collections: the Law Enforcement Management and Administrative Statistics (LEMAS) survey and the Census of State and Local Law Enforcement Agencies (CSLLEA).
On May 18, 2023, at 1:00 p.m. ET, BJS will hold a webinar that will provide an overview of the LECS Program solicitation and answer questions from interested applicants. Preregistration is required for all participants. To use the time most efficiently, BJS encourages participants to review the solicitation and to submit questions no later than May 11, 2023, at 8:59 p.m. ET. Submit your questions to [email protected] with the subject line, ?Questions for FY2023LECS Webinar.?
