BJA FY 20 National Community Courts Site-based and Training and Technical Assistance Initiative
The National Community Courts Site-based and Training and Technical Assistance Initiative supports efforts by state, local, and federally recognized Indian tribal governments to establish and enhance community courts in their jurisdictions.
Community courts enhance public safety by addressing
underlying issues that lead to criminal behavior, including substance abuse and behavioral health issues.
By engaging communities in planning and operational processes, they provide justice system officials with more effective options in dealing with lower-level offenses, enhance public trust in the conduct of justice, and help to reduce unnecessary incarceration.
