Office of Justice Programs

Since 1984 the Office of Justice Programs (OJP) has provided federal leadership in developing the nation’s capacity to prevent and control crime, improve the criminal and juvenile justice systems, increase knowledge about crime and related issues, and assist crime victims. OJP’s senior management team – comprised of the Assistant Attorney General (AAG), the Deputy Assistant Attorney General (DAAG), and the five bureau heads – works together with dedicated managers and line staff to carry out this mission.
