CPJAD serves as the central agency to provide the Attorney General, the chief law enforcement officer of Hawaii, with the information and resources needed to address crime and crime prevention.

Chapter 846D, Hawaii Revised Statutes, establishes the Juvenile Justice Information System (JJIS) within the Department of the Attorney General. The JJIS is a statewide system that combines juvenile offender information from the police, prosecutors, Family Court, and the Hawaii Youth Correctional Facility for use by the participating agencies in tracking juvenile offenders and providing data for appropriate research. The JJIS is also the repository for statewide information on missing children as mandated by Section 577-27, Hawaii Revised Statutes.

The JJIS provides juvenile justice agencies with appropriate and relevant information enabling them to utilize technology in several areas of juvenile justice. Agencies view the most critical areas of use as identification, protection, counseling, rehabilitation, education programs and other services that help juvenile offenders to become law‑abiding and productive citizens.

The position of JJIS Analyst involves a high level of technical skills as well as interpersonal and communications skills that are required to translate business requirements to the language of information technology. Development and maintenance of the JJIS will use the team approach. As required by twenty‑first century information technology, teams will be created on an ad‑hoc basis and will last for the life of a specified project.

Each “team” will have a JJIS Analyst that functions as the project leader and has the primary responsibility for the given project. Concurrently with the designation of “project leader” for a project, a JJIS Analyst may have additional assignments as either team member on another team or project leader for an additional project. Multi‑tasking is a key to success as a JJIS Analyst.

There are several JJIS Analysts on the JJIS staff. JJIS Analysts will rotate areas of responsibilities on a regular basis so they can act as backup for each other.
