The IJIS Institute was originally started in 1999 by the US DOJ, OJP, and BJA as the Industry Working Group. In 2001, the Integrated Justice Information Systems (IJIS) Institute was established as a nonprofit corporation and began focusing its mission on “…having a single voice of the industry in the development of new standards and practices in the justice, public safety, and homeland security sectors.” More information on IJIS can be found at www.IJIS.org

From the early days of development, SJPSO has beta tested the various versions of the application, piloted new programs and been a consistent source of ideas for improvements and additional development. The dedication of SJPSO to helping make solutions like CloudGavel available to the Law Enforcement community in Louisiana and beyond is worthy of this recognition.
