Criminal Justice Advisory Committee
CAPCOG's Criminal Justice Advisory Committee, created in 1982 to promote, foster and coordinate criminal justice planning and to review and prioritize local applications for criminal justice funds, comprises participants appointed from around the 10-county region by CAPCOG's Executive Committee.
The CJAC reviews and scores each criminal justice application based on its own merit, prioritizes the list of scored applications and presents a list of funding recommendations to the CAPCOG Executive Committee for approval to submit to the Governor’s Office. Neither CAPCOG nor the committee makes funding awards; all funding decisions are made at the sole discretion of the Governor's Office, Criminal Justice Division.
