National Public Safety Partnership

Success Story

 

PSP makes us a force-multiplier for you because it brings together the expertise of our federal agents with the manpower of the 85 percent of law officers in this country who serve at the state and local levels.  It takes our resources and provides them to the officers with the street-level intelligence that can lead to national and even international cases.

The National Public Safety Partnership (PSP) was established in June 2017 under the direction of U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions.  PSP serves as a U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ)-wide program that enables cities to consult with and receive coordinated training and technical assistance and an array of resources from DOJ to enhance local violence reduction strategies.

The Bureau of Justice Assistance recently highlighted the PSP site Birmingham, Alabama, as a success story where the promise of PSP is working.
