Local agencies apply for funding through the District Local Law Enforcement Planning Councils: http://lcle.la.gov/programs/planning_Districts.asp. Contact the appropriate district director for deadline information. The Planning Councils will make decisions as to which local level projects will be supported in their state application. The state deadline for the Planning Councils was August 6, 2010. The deadline is anticipated to be similar annually. Interested applicants should speak with their Planning Councils well in advance of the state deadline.
Established to streamline justice funding and grant administration, the JAG Program supports a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime based on local needs and conditions. JAG blends the previous Byrne Formula and Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) Programs to provide agencies with the flexibility to prioritize and place justice funds where they are needed most. Purpose Areas: JAG funds may be used for local initiatives, technical assistance, training, personnel, equipment, supplies, contractual support, and information systems for criminal justice, as well as criminal justice-related research and evaluation activities that will improve or enhance: (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; (7) crime victim and witness programs (other than compensation). Priority is for evidence-based or evidence-generating practices. No JAG funds may be expended outside of the JAG purpose areas.
None is available.
