The mission of the Colorado Division of Criminal Justice (DCJ) is to improve the safety of the community, the quality of services to crime victims, and the effectiveness of services to offenders.  DCJ accomplishes this through the work of six program offices and the office of administration by analyzing policy, conducting criminal justice research, managing programs, and administering grants. The six program offices include the Office of Adult and Juvenile Justice Assistance; Office of Community Corrections; Office of Domestic Violence and Sex Offender Management; Office of the Liaison for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives; Office of Research and Statistics; and Office for Victims Programs.
