Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2024, $174,000)

This grant will allow Oxford County Jail to complete two security projects that will greatly enhance safety for inmates and jail staff: Funds will support a body scanner to help detect contraband such as illegal drugs, weapons, and cell phones that are hidden in body cavities and security camera additions for the perimeter of the building to help prevent and detect contraband being thrown over the security fence and picked up by inmates.
