Who We Are
The Knowledge Lab will serve as a reliable national resource to improve public safety through effective crime-fighting strategies, innovative policing practices, and stronger community relationships. The Knowledge Lab will collaborate with stakeholder organizations, researchers, and agencies to leverage and share resources and guidance already developed within these professional networks and work to create resources where they are needed.
Our History
In April 2022, the Justice Department launched the National Law Enforcement Knowledge Lab ("the Knowledge Lab"), a first-of-its-kind resource hub to identify and publicly disseminate effective policing practices, training, and technical assistance at no cost.
Any community may engage with the Knowledge Lab to access information and expert assistance about implementing effective and evidence-informed law enforcement approaches that reduce crime and strengthen public trust.
Our Work
At the core of our mission lies a dedication to serving agencies and individuals alike, bridging the gap between knowledge and action. Through technical assistance, knowledge exchange, and the curation of valuable resources, our aim is clear: focus on practical solutions and meaningful contributions.
