The National Public Safety Partnership (PSP) helps communities build their capacity to fight serious violent crime.?Through PSP, your community will receive specialized law enforcement expertise with dedicated prosecutorial resources to promote public and community safety?with the end goal of reducing violent crime and making our communities safer places to live and work. PSP is not a grant program.
PSP?s strategic focus is to support communities that (1) struggle with sustained levels of violent crime far in excess of the national average and (2) would benefit from DOJ?s support in developing their own capacities. Medium and larger sized agencies encouraged to apply.
Interested jurisdictions should complete the Training and Technical Assistance Request Form and Statement of Interest?by 11:59 p.m. ET, on May 12, 2023.?Selected cities will be notified by June 15, 2023.?
Jurisdictions are encouraged to?complete the Violent Crime Reduction Self- Assessment Tool. The assessment is optional and not required to submit your application for consideration. The PSP team will be notified once you submit your responses.?(Results from this assessment will be reviewed by DOJ representatives.) The Violent Crime Reduction Operations Guide is also recommended for you to review.
