Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2011, $306,507)
The Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program (JAG) allows states and units of local government, including tribes, to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime based on their own state and local needs and conditions. Grant funds can be used for state and local initiatives, technical assistance, training, personnel, equipment, supplies, contractual support, and information systems for criminal justice, including for any one or more of the following purpose areas: 1) law enforcement programs; 2) prosecution and court programs; 3) prevention and education programs; 4) corrections and community corrections programs; 5) drug treatment and enforcement programs; 6) planning, evaluation, and technology improvement programs; and 7) crime victim and witness programs (other than compensation).
The grant recipient will use grant funds to support overtime, upgrade law enforcement equipment, technology and training activities. These significant enhancements will assist with community policing and innovative crime fighting strategies that target violent crime, guns, and gangs. Collectively, these strategies meet unfunded needs and will serve to reduce crime and violence. NCA/NCF
