Policy Bureau, Legislation, Research and Evaluation and Program Development Sections

About I Publications I Contact

The Division's Policy Bureau performs legislative review, conducts research and evaluation, and provides program development and grants monitoring services. The Legislation Section monitors all pending legislation which could affect the operation of the Division by preparing legislative analyses, drafting amendments to pending legislation, and developing initiatives to improve existing law.

The Research and Evaluation Section collects data, does primary research, and evaluates research done by others to provide information to the Attorney General and staff on current topics affecting law enforcement. Information specific to New Jersey is frequently collected by survey and reports are prepared to share results with the state's law enforcement communities, legislators, the Governor, U.S. senators and representatives, and various state agencies.

The Program Development Section plans and coordinates drug and violent crime initiatives among state, county, and local criminal justice agencies. A large part of these anti-crime efforts are supported with federal grants and, as such, the section takes on a wide range of responsibilities relating to the administration and monitoring of crime-fighting grant programs.
