The Oklahoma State Crisis Intervention Program Advisory Board has voted to open solicitations for the $3.56 million dollars allocated to the state in the following three priority areas, based on Oklahoma's violent death statistics:
1. Behavioral Health Deflection: Supporting crisis intervention and community violence intervention programs, including mobile crisis teams, CIT, CVI, crisis stabilization, peer support, behavioral threat assessment, technological supports, specialized training, and school threat assessment teams.
2. Law Enforcement Support: Enhancing law enforcement's capacity to handle firearm violence with gun locks, public awareness campaigns, tracking software, specialized training, and officer training.
3. Specialized Court-based Programs: Funding drug, mental health, and veterans treatment courts and threat assessment training for criminal justice professionals.

The Oklahoma District Attorneys Council Federal Grants Division will allocate funds through a competitive grant solicitation process. The DAC Grants Division will monitor grant recipients to ensure submission of performance data and compliance with state and federal grant assurances.
