Office of Justice Assistance
November 1, 2011
The Honorable, The Legislature:
Following is the 2009-2011 Biennial Report for the Office of Justice Assistance (OJA). This report highlights the activities conducted during the biennium and outlines our vision for 2011-13.
As the State Administering Agency for federal justice and homeland security grant funds, the Wisconsin Office of Justice Assistance develops statewide strategies, determines funding priorities, and advises the Governor and legislature on criminal justice, domestic violence, juvenile justice, public safety, and domestic preparedness policy. OJA has the unique perspective of being separate from other justice related state resources allowing us to analyze, collect data and recommend policy for the whole justice system rather than from the perspective of a stakeholder.
S610 OJA's independence will be valuable for upcoming justice data research opportunities such as analyzing the costs of incarceration versus alternative programs or bringing justice partners together to discuss gaps in data systems. 2011-13 will include enhancements to justice data transfers and lookup tools for justice professionals and technology equipment to make the connections. OJA will launch the Wisconsin Interoperable System for Communications (WISCOM) system that first responders in communities across the state will use to communicate during a major disaster or large-scale incident.
OJA's programs assist local units of governments, non-profits and tribal governments with resources to assist them in their day to day operations. We look forward to future opportunities to provide services.
Sincerely,
darcey varese
Acting Deputy Director
