DOJ’s Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative (Global) supports national policy, practices, and technology solutions to improve information-sharing capacity within the criminal justice community, while also emphasizing the importance of privacy and civil liberty protections.

BJA NTTAC provides TTA resources to help agencies overcome obstacles to sharing information. Improving the information-sharing processes strengthens decisionmaking and enables research and evaluation to identify promising practices with a strong return on investment.
