Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2015, $27,195)

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 goal of this project is to purchase IAPro software that will allow the department to run reports and receive notification of possible police misconduct. The software will notify senior leaders where warning signs occur and allow management ways to detect possible behavior trends and areas where additional training is needed. Funds will also be used to continue with taser implementation.
