 | Research assessing the impact of the COPS Office, and the Hiring program in particular, dates back to 2000 and the National Institute of Justice-sponsored evaluation of the first 4 years of COPS Office funding. Since that time, criminologists and economists from some of the nations leading universities and think tanks have attempted to assess to what extent the investment of COPS Office funding in state and local law enforcement agencies has influenced police practice and crime rates across the nation. This publication summarizes the key findings of some of these assessments. First published in 2012, then revised in 2016, 2017, 2021, and 2024.By Matthew C. Scheider, Deborah L. Spence, Thomas C.
