Best Practices Committee
The committee includes the Arizona Attorney General, five of the fifteen elected County Attorneys (from offices across the state – small and large, rural and urban), and two Chief City Court Prosecutors. The Committee is staffed by the Executive Director of the Arizona Prosecuting Attorneys’ Advisory Council. The Committee plans training based on trending issues and best practices throughout the year for prosecutors, legal assistants, support staff, and victim advocates. In addition, the Committee supports multi-disciplinary training with its criminal justice partners.
