Grant Project to Enhance the Capabilities of the Crime Analysis, Training, Public Information, and Patrol Operations of the Agency.

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 program 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 grantee will utilize the grant award to enhance the capabilities of crime analysis, training, public information, and patrol operations of the agency. Funds will be used to purchase laptops for crime analysis and strategic evaluation, software upgrades, and audio/visual aids for public information officers and tactical units. NCA/NCF
