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).
University City will use the JAG award to purchase twenty user licenses for Enterpol, the police department's records management and computer aided dispatch system. The information system will ensure uniformity of reporting systems and provide a more efficient manner for retrieving data.
