PSN is a nationwide initiative that brings together federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement officials, prosecutors, community-based partners, and other stakeholders to identify the most pressing violent crime problems in a community and develop comprehensive solutions to address them.

The PSN TTA program is led by CNA’s Institute for Public Research (CNA) with support from TTA partners, Michigan State University (MSU), the National Center for Victims of Crime (NCVC), and the National District Attorneys Association (NDAA).
