State and Federal Collaboration in Body-Worn Camera Implementation: Pennsylvania's Phased Approach
CNA
The Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency (PCCD) is statutorily authorized to undertake criminal and juvenile justice planning, coordination, and policy analysis. PCCD serves as the State Administrating Agency (SAA) that provides the state with a central source of planning, statistical analysis, and program development for the improvement of the state’s justice system. As the SAA, PCCD administers state and federal grant programs. In 2018, PCCD applied for and received a Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) Body-Worn Camera Policy and Implementation Program (BWCPIP) competitive grant on behalf of 50 preidentified law enforcement agencies (LEAs). This infographic details PCCD's role as the SAA in the implementation of BWCs, initial results from their BWC program, and discusses the overall benefits of a regional approach to BWC implementation.
