FY 2021 Continuation of the Federal Justice Statistics Program
(Solicitation)
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), Bureau of
Justice Statistics (BJS) is seeking applications for funding for the fiscal year
(FY) 2021 continuation of the Federal Justice Statistics Program (FJSP). This data
collection program is a component of the BJS Criminal Justice Statistics Program.
The FJSP provides information on the federal criminal case processing of defendants
arrested, prosecuted, adjudicated, sentenced, and in prison, with a focus on linking
records across stages of the case process. BJS has sought to maximize the utility of
the FJSP by providing the data and tools to support evidence-based analyses for DOJ
and other executive, legislative, and judicial branch agencies. This includes
expanding the information available through the Federal Criminal Case Processing
query tool and demonstrating new ways the federal data, especially through
record‐linkage tools, can be analyzed to develop evidence to support
policymaking. This program furthers the Department’s mission by increasing
transparency, collaboration, and reporting of federal criminal justice agencies.
