inter-agency collaboration

You are working in the research   unit of a foundation that awards grants to criminal justice agencies. The   foundation is interested in promoting inter-agency collaboration to address   specific issues in criminal justice. There is a formal debate in the office   as to whether a particular case of apparent cooperation/collaboration was   actually effective. Your supervisor is championing one side of this   discussion.  You have been asked to provide a review of the case   identified below. Specifically, your supervisor asked you to compose a paper   that included responses to the four questions provided. (See Item #3 below.)

1. Read the following report from the National   Institute of Justice:

“Baltimore’s Comprehensive   Communities Program: A Case Study” 

https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/nij/grants/204627.pdf

2. Respond to the following   questions:

1. Describe the positive aspects of the collaborative        initiative
2. What partner do you feel is less essential to the        initiative and why? (Note “None” is not an option.)
3. What criminal justice entity do you feel could have        enhanced the success of the initiative?]
4. What NON-criminal justice entity do you feel could        have enhanced the success of the initiative?

Note: While these four questions may be helpful in creating an outline, the   paper itself must be presented as a formal narative case study.

3. Complete Project 1 (Case   Study) in the following format:

1. A minimum of three (4) full maximum five (5) full        pages of narrative text
2. Respond to the four questions (a, b, c and d) in item        3 above
3. Support your work with a MINIMUM of two (2) resources        other than the class instructional material. Narrative and Resource page        citations must be done in the American Psychological Association (APA)        format
4. A cover page (not included in the page count)
   1. Name of the student
   2. Name and number of the course
   3. Date of submission
   4. All other pages will be double-spaced, 1 inch         margin, 12 font.
