Public Safety Facility Outfitting

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 this Fiscal Year 2014 JAG award to purchase office furniture and equipment for a newly constructed public safety facility. Currently, funds are not available to outfit the facility's offices/rooms with office furniture or equipment such as video/audio systems for interview rooms. This furniture/equipment will ensure the office is fully functional.
