U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs (OJP)

The Office of Justice Programs (OJP) is a component of the U.S. Department of Justice. At OJP, we provide innovative leadership to federal, state, local, and tribal justice systems, by disseminating state-of-the art knowledge and practices across America, and providing grants for the implementation of these crime fighting strategies. Because most of the responsibility for crime control and prevention falls to law enforcement officers in states, cities, and neighborhoods, the federal government can be effective in these areas only to the extent that it can enter into partnerships with these officers.We are a diverse workforce comprised of talented employees representing a wide array of professional disciplines. Our talent pool includes accountants, attorneys, grant/project managers, IT specialists, policy advisors, public affairs specialists, researchers, scientists, statisticians, writer/editors, and more. We recently completed a comprehensive workspace modernization initiative that has transformed the way we work. Check out our Life page and learn more about our culture and our new workspace.
