Foreword

The Law Enforcement Standards Laboratory (LESL) of the National Bureau

of Standards (NBS) furnishes technical support to the National Institute of Justice

(NIJ) program to strengthen law enforcement and criminal justice in the United

States. LESL's function is to conduct research that will assist law enforcement and

criminal justice agencies in the selection and procurement of quality equipment.

LESL is: (1) Subjecting existing equipment to laboratory testing and evaluation and (2) conducting research leading to the development of several series of

documenents, including national voluntary equipment standards, user guides, and

technical reports.

This document is a law enforcement equipment report developed by LESL

under the sponsorship of NIJ as part of the Technology Assessment Program,

which is described on page iv. Additional reports as well as other documents are being issued under the LESL program in the areas of protective equipment, communications equipment, security systems, weapons, emergency equipment,

investigative aids, vehicles, and clothing.

Technical comments and suggestions concerning this report are invited from

all interested parties. They may be addressed to the Law Enforcement Standards

Laboratory, National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, MD 20899.

ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENT PROGRAM

The Technology Assessment Program is sponsored by the Office of Development, Testing, and Dissemination of the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), U.S. Department of Justice. The program responds to the

mandate of the Justice System Improvement Act of 1979, which created NIJ and directed it to encourage

research and development to improve the criminal justice system and to disseminate the results to Federal,

State, and local agencies.

The Technology Assessment Program is an applied research effort that determines the technological needs

of justice system agencies, sets minimum performance standards for specific devices, tests commercially

available equipment against those standards, and disseminates the standards and the test results to criminal

justice agencies nationwide and internationally.

The program operates through:

The Technology Assessment Program Advisory Council (TAPAC) consisting of nationally recognized criminal justice practitioners from Federal, State, and local agencies, which assesses technological needs and sets priorities for research programs and items to be evaluated and tested. The Law Enforcement Standards Laboratory (LESL) at the National Bureau of Standards, which develops

voluntary national performance standards for compliance testing to ensure that individual items of equipment

are suitable for use by criminal justice agencies. The standards are based upon laboratory testing and evaluation

of representative samples of each item of equipment to determine the key attributes, develop test methods, and

establish minimum performance requirements for each essential attribute. In addition to the highly technical

standards, LESL also produces user guides that explain in nontechnical terms the capabilities of available

equipment.

The Technology Assessment Program Testing and Information Center (TAPTIC) operated by a grantee,

which supervises a national compliance testing program conducted by independent agencies. The standards

developed by LESL serve as performance benchmarks against which commercial equipment is measured. The

facilities, personnel, and testing capabilities of the independent laboratories are evaluated by LESL prior to testing each item of equipment, and LESL helps the Information Center staff review and analyze data. Test

results are published in Consumer Product Reports designed to help justice system procurement officials make

informed purchasing decisions.

Publications issued by the National Institute of Justice, including those of the Technology Assessment

Program, are available from the National Criminal Justice Reference Service (NCJRS), which serves as a central information and reference source for the Nation's criminal justice community. For further information, or to register with NCJRS, write to the National Institute of Justice, National Criminal Justice Reference

Directory of Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Associations

and Research Centers

The directory lists national, nonprofit professional and volunteer social action associations and

research centers which are active in the field of law enforcement and criminal justice. The international and foreign organizations which are listed either have a large number of American members, have a U.S.

chapter, or are doing work which is applicable to the United States. The local organizations which are

listed either cover several States or are of national interest. The organizations are listed alphabetically. The format of an entry is: title of organization; mailing address; officer; telephone number; year founded; number of members; number of staff; description of purpose and activities; affiliations; publications; meetings. A subject index is included.

Key words: associations; criminal justice; directory; law enforcement; research centers.

Introduction

This is a directory of organizations that are active

in one or more areas of the criminal justice system,

including law enforcement, courts, corrections and

rehabilitation. The directory lists national or- ganizations primarily, but also includes regional or- ganizations and local organizations of special interest as well as international organizations which have a

significant number of American members, a U.S. chapter or subcommittee, or are doing work applicable to law enforcement in this country.

The types of national law enforcement and criminal justice organizations listed in this directory are

limited by the criterion that they be nonprofit. In- cluded in this category are professional and volunteer

social action associations, research centers (usually

connected with a university), and government agencies. Strictly social or fraternal organizations are not

listed. The information about each organization in this directory forms a separate entry. Each entry contains

the following information: (1) the full title of the

organization and its acronym, where applicable; (2) the mailing address; (3) a person to contact within the

organization; usually an incumbent officer; (4) the

telephone number at which a contact person can be

reached; (5) the year when the organization was

founded; (6) the number of members; (7) the number

_of staff, where applicable; (8) a brief description of

the organization; (9) affiliations, if any; (10) publications, if any; and (11) the date and place of the next meeting or convention, or when they generally occur.

The first edition of this directory was developed

primarily by scanning the Encyclopedia of Associations, the Research Centers Directory, and other

general directories, and extracting from them the

data on organizations relating to law enforcement

and criminal justice. Whenever personal in- vestigation revealed organizations which were not included in the primary source material, they were

included in this directory.

Once the information was obtained from the general directories it was verified by telphone or by mail. The organizations are listed alphabetically. A subject index, which is located at the back of the directory, is cross-referenced and is based solely on infor- mation given in the descriptions of activities. The first edition of this directory was prepared by

B. J. Latka of the Law Enforcement Standards Laboratory (LESL) and was issued in June 1973 as NBS

Technical Note 752. The second edition was issued in March 1978 as NBS Special Publication 480-20. This

thoroughly revised and updated third edition is the

result of the efforts of several LESL staff members.

The Section of Criminal Justice is a professional membership

organization for criminal law practitioners, and for lawyers who

handle an occasional criminal case or become involved in any

aspect of white collar crime or other criminal representation. Additionally, the Criminal Justice Section is the American Bar Association's primary expert and leader in the development of policy

positions pertaining to criminal law and criminal justice system

operations. Because of its systemwide perspective, the Section's membership includes defense lawyers, prosecutors, trial and appellate judges, legislators, law professors, law enforcement and corrections personnel, nonlawyer "Criminal Justice Associates" in some of these and allied criminal justice professions, and law stu- dents. The Section sponsors continuing legal education programs on trial tactics and techniques, emerging problem areas in criminal defense and prosecution, and substantive developments in the law. Practice-oriented and policy publications are published periodically, such as a recent "how to" guide for lawyers entitled Criminal Appeals Primer, and a recent Report on Computer Crime which

presents a comprehensive analysis of the nature and occurrence of computer-related crime in America. Current efforts in the policy

development arena include work toward the development of a model state RICO statute (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations), a study of eligibility and recoupment practices in the provision of indigent defense services, the development of stan- dards providing guidance in the controversial area of access by law

enforcement agencies to third-party held records, and research on

the cost impact of the death penalty on the justice system. The

Section monitors State legislative developments and frequently

testifies on behalf of the American Bar Association before the U.S. Congress on subjects ranging from voir dire by counsel to pre- ventive detention and sentencing. Beyond these subjects, the Section's current volunteer committee structure addresses subjects

including competency, environmental criminal law, prison and jail problems, grand jury reform, drunk driving, prosecutorial dis- cretion, rules of criminal procedure and evidence, and white collar crime. The Criminal Justice Section currently sponsors a Juvenile

Justice Standards Implementation Project and a Victim Witness

Assistance Project which are also active agents in the spheres of policymaking, publications, and education.

Founded "to help rehabilitate inmates and former inmates of

penal or correctional institutions." Members are ex-convicts who

attend a prerelease training class run by the Foundation in a penitentiary, or other ex-convicts who attend a post-release class. The

Foundation also offers counseling by ex-convicts and finds sponsors who help released inmates with employment and financial problems. The Foundation's biblical motto: "Know the truth and

the truth shall make you free" (John 8:32), aims to help convicts

realize they have alienated themselves from society and must change if they are to avoid returning to prison. The Foundation's seven steps of personal development are: (1) facing the truth about

ourselves and the world around us, we decided we needed to change; (2) realizing that there is a power from which we can gain

strength, we decided to use that power; (3) evaluating ourselves by

taking on an honest self-appraisal, we examined both our strengths and our weaknesses; (4) endeavoring to help ourselves overcome

our weaknesses, we enlisted the aid of the power; (5) deciding that our freedom is worth more than our resentments, we are using the power to help free us from those resentments; (6) observing that daily progress is necessary, we set an attainable goal towards which we can work each day; (7) maintaing our own freedom, we

pledge ourselves to help others as we have been helped. The

Foundation developed from Freedom House, a Kansas cor- poration founded in 1963 by the late W. P. (Bill) Sands, an ex- convict and author of "My Shadow Ran Fast," and "The Seventh

Step." A national expansion program was begun and the name

changed to 7th Step Foundation in 1965, with Mr. Sands also a founder of the national organization.
