The Northern and Middle States Rural Law Enforcement Training and Technical Assistance Grant Program will provide resources and Training and Technical Assistance (TTA) to sheriffs, and rural and tribal law enforcement agencies located in northern or middle states, to address precipitous increases of all types of crime unique to this region, including human trafficking and sexual assaults, drug trafficking, and other forms of violent crime.
