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 use JAG funds to support law enforcement initiatives. Specifically, funds will be used purchase a local server with associated hardware and software for the Mugshot Retrieval and Ten-Print Card Access Initiative. By providing law enforcement personnel with the necessary equipment, personnel will be better prepared to detect, identify, prevent, and disrupt acts of violence throughout the city. NCA/NCF
