BJA FY 21 Project Safe Neighborhood

The Department of Justice is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights, increases access to justice, supports crime victims, protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community. Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) is designed to create and foster safer communities through a sustained reduction in violent crime. The program's effectiveness depends upon the ongoing coordination, cooperation, and partnerships of local, state, tribal, and federal law enforcement agencies and community organizations working together with the communities they serve engaged in a unified approach coordinated by the U.S. Attorney (USA) in all 94 districts. This program supports the current Administration's goal of reducing violence in our communities and supporting survivors of violence.
