Drug Courts Program Office:"The OJP Drug Courts Program Office was established to administer the drug court grant program and to provide financial and technical assistance, training, related programmatic guidance, and leadership. Drug Courts leverage the coercive power of the criminal justice system to achieve abstinence and alter criminal behavior through the combination of judicial supervision, treatment, drug testing, incentives, sanctions, and case management. The Drug Court Grant Program offers grants to jurisdictions to plan, implement or enhance drug courts. In conjunction with the National Institute of Justice, the Drug Courts Program Office also will conduct comparative evaluations of drug court programs to indentify the most effective program elements and designs to combat drug abuse and crime."

The mission of the BJA is to provide leadership and assistance in support of local criminal justice strategies to achieve safe communities. BJA's overall goals are to: (1) reduce and prevent crime, violence, and drug abuse and (2) improve the functioning of the criminal justice system. To achieve these goals, BJA programs emphasize enhanced coordination and cooperation of federal, state, and local efforts."
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI):"The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is the principal investigative arm of the United States Department of Justice (DOJ). Title 28, United States Code (U.S. Code), Section 533, which authorizes the Attorney General to "appoint officials to detect...crimes against the United States," and other federal statutes give the FBI the authority and responsibility to investigate specific crimes. At present, the FBI has investigative jurisdiction over violations of more than 200 categories of federal crimes.
The Bureau is also authorized to investigate matters where no prosecution is contemplated. For example, under the authority of several Executive Orders, the FBI conducts background security checks concerning nominees to sensitive government positions. In addition, the FBI has been directed or authorized by Presidential statements or directives to obtain information about activities jeopardizing the security of the nation."
The Federal Bureau of Prisons:"The Federal Bureau of Prisons was established in 1930 to provide more progressive and humane care for Federal inmates, to professionalize the prison service, and to ensure consistent and centralized administration of the 11 Federal prisons in operation at that time. Today, the Bureau consists of 98 institutions, 6 regional offices, a Central Office (headquarters), 3 staff training centers, and 28 community corrections offices. The regional offices and the Central Office provide administrative oversight and support to the institutions and community corrections offices. Community corrections offices oversee community corrections centers and home confinement programs. The Bureau is responsible for the custody and care of approximately 146,000 Federal offenders. About 126,000 of these inmates are confined in Bureau-operated correctional institutions or detention centers. The rest are confined through agreements with State and local governments and through contracts with privately-operated community corrections centers, detention centers, prisons, and juvenile facilities." ****************************************************** ******************************************************
