Criminal justice organizations are numerous and operate at all levels of government. They are also complex in nature, both operationally and administratively. Although similarities exist across criminal justice organizations (in terms of structure, policies, and procedures), management, administration, and response to crime vary among the organizations. For example, local communities often have specific ideas about goals and objectives for criminal justice organizations in their area; thus, organizational structure and administrative approaches may be tailored to meet specific needs.

Select one of the following criminal justice areas: courts, corrections, or law enforcement. Think about the similarities and differences between and among federal, state, and local organizations in the area you selected.
Reflect on the overall complexity of criminal justice organizations and how this impacts their management and administration.
