The Arizona Criminal Justice Commission is a statutorily authorized entity mandated to carry out various coordinating, monitoring and reporting functions regarding the administration and management of criminal justice programs in Arizona. The ACJC was created in 1982 to serve as a resource and service organization for Arizona's 480 criminal justice agencies on a myriad of issues ranging from drugs, gangs, victim compensation and assistance to criminal record improvement initiatives. The ACJC works on behalf of the criminal justice agencies in Arizona to facilitate information and data exchange among statewide agencies by establishing and maintaining criminal justice information archives, monitoring new and continuing legislation relating to criminal justice issues, gathering information, and researching existing criminal justice programs.
The "2003 White Paper" attempts to present a comprehensive statewide report on the occurrence of crime in Arizona, as well as the associated workload of the criminal justice system. One of the most comprehensive resources since the publication of the "1995 White Paper" was the "2002 Crime Trends in Arizona" report. The "2003 White Paper" builds upon the "Crime Trends" report and gives the reader the comprehensive comparison to the changes that have taken place in the criminal justice system since the "1995 White Paper." It is the intent of this study to provide information in a factual and objective manner allowing easy access and individual interpretation.
