Award Information
Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2023, $200,000)
The Institute for Intergovernmental Research (IIR) proposes to support collaborative information
sharing efforts of DOJ, DHS, ONDI, FBI, BJA, and experts from state and local communities. IIR
proposes to provide continued support for these efforts and coordinate with DOJ and DHS on select information sharing projects as prioritized by the CICC and/or DHS’s State and Local Intelligence Council. IIR will develop, coordinate, and reproduce resources, tools, and training for SLTT partners to further their information and intelligence sharing capabilities and ensure P/CRCL protections. IIR will also provide continued support for SLTT information sharing exchanges (virtual and/or in person). Support includes assistance with the identification, documentation, and sharing of recommended practices and lessons learned; the coordination of exchanges and all related
communications; preparation of participant information packets; the provision of travel parameters,
program requirements, and invitational travel support, when appropriate; tracking metrics; after-action reporting; and post-activity support. The achievement of these goals will support the standardization of information sharing practices, including P/CRCL protections, and the identification and sharing of SLTT promising practices and lessons learned, while providing valuable guidance on contemporary intelligence and information sharing areas.
