SEARCH, The National Consortium for Justice Information and Statistics, is dedicated to improving the quality of justice and public safety through the use, management and exchange of information; application of new technologies; and responsible law and policy, while safeguarding security and privacy.

We assist local, tribal, county, regional, and state agencies and organizations — including law enforcement and public safety; first responders; prosecution; defense; adjudication; detention; corrections and probation; and other disciplines, such as transportation, drivers' licensing, vehicle registration, public health and social services — through a broad array of activities, resources and products. Our focus is on criminal history systems, integrated justice information systems, information technology (planning, purchasing, managing) and cybercrime investigation. Our services include in-house and onsite technical assistance and training, resource development (Websites, publications, white papers, conferences, workshops), public policy assistance and model development (model legislation, standards and procedures, best practices) in these focus areas. SEARCH online resources provide information on law enforcement IT, integrated justice, justice software solutions and IT acquisition at www.search.org.
