Archived Webinar: Strengthening the Court Systems: Understanding State and Federal Resources

Hosted by the National Criminal Justice Association 

With tight state budgets, court systems are increasingly looking outside of traditional legislative appropriations for funding and resources. This webinar highlights grant opportunities available through State Administering Agencies (SAAs) and various federal partners, as well as opportunities for federally funded training and technical assistance. In addition, it discusses how court administrators can engage with and stay informed about funding opportunities. Finally, it provides an overview of the process for applying for grant funds and showcases strategies for integrating court functions into criminal justice resource planning.
