Abstract
The term often used to describe information sharing across
various justice disciplines is "integration," i.e., the
application of technology to improve information management and
information sharing between justice enterprise agencies at all
levels of government. Supporting the endeavors of the justice
community to electronically share information is the focus of the
Global Justice Information Network Federal Advisory Committee and
the OJP and COPS technology initiatives described in this
document. Information technology initiatives are briefly profiled
for the Bureau of Justice Statistics, the National Institute of
Justice, the Bureau of Justice Assistance, COPS, the Office of
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, the Office for
Victims of Crime, and the Violence Against Women Office. The
appendixes contain a listing of partnerships and affiliations;
the Bureau of Justice Assistance's information technology
initiative: vision, mission, goals, and objectives; a website
guide; and a glossary.
