Overview
The Division of Criminal Justice Services partners with local law enforcement agencies across the state to support a network of Crime Analysis Centers (CACs) that provide investigative support and information to help police and prosecutors more effectively solve, reduce, and prevent crime.
The 11-Center network was built upon conventional crime analysis services historically embedded with local law enforcement agencies. The Crime Analysis Centers coordinate, expand, and enhance those services, including but not limited to hot spot analysis, crime pattern identification and analysis, and provide real-time investigative support to law enforcement agencies.
