Characteristics of State Law Enforcement Liaison Programs

States use a variety of Law Enforcement Liaison (LEL) network models. This project will conduct an online survey of State LEL programs to identify program characteristics, costs, and State-recommended program practices as well as case studies of LEL programs. The goal of this project is to improve the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's understanding of LEL programs across the United States and to characterize existing LEL program approaches. Study outcomes are intended to inform funding agencies and LEL programs about the characteristics of program outcomes and successes.

• Supplemental Notes:
  • This study is being conducted under the National Cooperative Research and Evaluation Program, which is administered by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and jointly managed by NHTSA and the Governors Highway Safety Association.
