National Institute for Jail Operations (NIJO)

Law EnforcementUtah, United States51-200 Employees

The National Institute for Jail Operations (NIJO) is dedicated to serving those that operate jails, detention, and correctional facilities.  Training is often based on best practices rather than case law due to administrators not having the time, resources, or ability to research relevant case law training.  Policies, procedures, and training must be centered and built around current case law and statutes. Recognizing the enormous liability and litigation facing administrations and, in an industry where resources are scarce, NIJO provides a compilation of legal-based resources specific to various state statute requirements or Circuit Courts of Appeal.  By having these guidelines, we can provide agencies access to a database of industry standards, the ability to conduct self-audits, customizable training, legal consultation, and the opportunity to have their facility Nationally Accredited.  Established in 2011, NIJO is the only organization to offer resources under one umbrella with legal-based emphasis.
