BJA FY 18 Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) National Training and Technical Assistance Program

PSN is designed to create safer neighborhoods through a sustained reduction in gang violence and gun crime. The program's effectiveness is based on the cooperation and partnerships of local, state, and federal agencies engaged in a unified approach led by the U.S. Attorney (USA) in each district. One if the five core components of PSN is its provision of available training opportunities to PSN teams to assist them in the effective implementation of the critical components identified in their approved Strategic Action Plans. The Department will make available training and technical assistance (TTA) to our state, local, and tribal partners, to ensure they have the information they need to succeed. BJA will be seeking TTA providers who will develop criminal justice-related curricula and deliver TTA to state, tribal, and local law enforcement agencies, other justice system agencies, and communities.
