The mission of the Criminal Division’s Office of Overseas Prosecutorial Development, Assistance and Training (OPDAT) is to develop and administer technical and developmental assistance designed to enhance the capabilities of foreign justice sector institutions and their law enforcement personnel. This assistance is administered to enable those institutions and their personnel to combat terrorism, transnational organized crime, corruption, financial crimes, and other types of crime more effectively in a manner consistent with the rule of law. The assistance is also administered to enable those institutions and their personnel to cooperate more effectively regionally and with the United States in combating such crime.

As the federal agency whose mission is to ensure the fair and impartial administration of justice for all Americans, the Department of Justice is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment. To build and retain a workforce that reflects the diverse experiences and perspectives of the American people, we welcome applicants from the many communities, identities, races, ethnicities, backgrounds, abilities, religions, and cultures of the United States who share our commitment to public service.

The SRLA will also work closely with OPDAT headquarters staff and officials of the Department of State, U.S. Agency for International Development, operational law enforcement agencies, and in-country U.S. and foreign authorities to ensure the assistance program meets the needs of the host nation while supporting Departmental and U.S. policy objectives.

The SRLA will be responsible for the implementation of programs that focus on criminal justice sector institutional development in the host nation, specifically with the judiciary capacity building. However, these programs may also include aspects of transition and implementation of the accusatorial system, assessment of the legal system, prosecutorial capacity building, investigation and prosecution of complex transnational cases, trial advocacy skills development, money laundering and asset forfeiture, trafficking in persons, evidence collection and preservation, as well as pretrial alternatives.
