National Public Safety Partnership Diagnostic Sites Fact Sheet

See the new fact sheet here

The OJP Diagnostic Center is a resource designed to provide customized training and technical assistance (TTA) to address persistent and emerging public safety problems using evidence-based strategies. The Diagnostic Center helps communities invest in what works by bridging the gap between data and justice policy at the state, city, county and tribal levels. Diagnostic Center TTA builds community capacity for data-driven decision-making, ensuring that limited local resources are invested wisely and federal assets are leveraged where they are needed most. Diagnostic Center services are provided to communities without cost; but the success of the engagement is dependent on the community’s commitment to and participation in the Diagnostic Center’s data-driven process. By maximizing the impact of available resources, the Diagnostic Center can help communities reap better public safety outcomes.
