award include suspension or termination of the award, placement on the DOJ high-risk <br /> grantee list, disallowance of costs, and suspension or debarment of the recipient. <br /> Objectives <br /> In general, the FY 2020 JAG Program is designed to provide additional personnel, equipment, <br /> supplies, contractual support, training, technical assistance, and information systems for <br /> criminal justice. Although the JAG Program provides assistance directly to states, through <br /> pass-through (and similar) requirements, the JAG Program also is designed to assist units of <br /> local government with respect to their criminal justice needs. <br /> As discussed in more detail in the General Information about Post-federal Award <br /> Reporting Requirements discussion, a unit of local government that receives a FY 2020 <br /> JAG award will be required to produce various types of reports and to submit data related <br /> to performance measurement and accountability. <br /> The objectives are directly related to the JAG Program performance measures described <br /> at https://bjapmt.ojp.gov/help/jaqdocs.html and demonstrate the results of the work <br /> completed, as discussed under What an Application Should Include. <br /> Evidence-based Programs or Practices <br /> OJP strongly emphasizes the use of data and evidence in policy making and program development <br /> for criminal justice, juvenile justice, and crime victim services. For additional information and <br /> resources on evidence-based programs or practices, see the OJP Grant Application Resource <br /> Guide. <br /> A useful matrix of evidence-based policing programs and strategies is available through the <br /> BJA-supported Matrix Demonstration Project. It offers a number of program models designed <br /> to effectively implement promising and evidence-based strategies through the BJA Innovation <br /> Suite of programs, including Innovations in Policing, Prosecution, Supervision, Reentry, and <br /> others (see https://www.bia.gov/Programs/CRPPE/innovationssuite.html). BJA encourages <br /> units of local government to use JAG funds to develop and implement these crime innovation <br /> strategies, including effective partnerships with universities and research partners and with <br /> nontraditional criminal justice partners. <br /> Information Regarding Potential Evaluation of Programs and Activities <br /> Applicants should note OJP may conduct or support an evaluation of the programs and activities <br /> funded under the JAG Program. For additional information, see the OJP Grant Application <br /> Resource Guide section, entitled, "Information Regarding Potential Evaluation of Programs and <br /> Activities." <br /> B.
