Description
OJP is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights and equity, increases access to justice, supports crime victims and individuals impacted by the justice system, strengthens community safety, protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community.
With this solicitation, BJA seeks applications for funding to provide information, support, and assistance to state, local, and tribal correctional agencies and facilities to prevent, detect, and respond to sexual abuse and sexual harassment, as well as implement the National PREA Standards....
This program furthers the Department’s mission of supporting crime victims and protecting the public from crimes by decreasing the likelihood that inmates, residents, and detainees are sexually victimized in confinement facilities prior to being released to communities across the nation. Reductions in prison rape also create safer work environments for staff members in prisons and jails, juvenile confinement facilities, community confinement facilities, and police lockups.
