The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) said approximately $40 million has been earmarked for Community Policing Development (CPD) grants, in addition to $5 million being allocated for the Collaborative Reform Initiative.
“Nothing is more important than keeping our communities safe,” Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta said. “Each day, approximately half a million people throughout the United States call 911 for help, and there are hundreds of thousands more daily interactions between law enforcement and members of the communities they serve. The funding we are announcing today is critical to the department’s commitment to public safety and best practices in community policing.”
CPD funds aid law enforcement in implementing community policing through developing and testing innovative strategies, developing knowledge regarding effective practices and outcomes, and supporting creative approaches related to crime prevention and promoting safe communities.
The Collaborative Reform Initiative provides a range of intermediary and intensive forms of technical assistance, such as targeted assistance in the wake of a critical incident, issue-specific reviews and analysis, and in-depth assessments on systemic issues damaging community trust and confidence.
Per the DOJ, CPD solicitation will come to a close on June 23, 2022, while the Collaborative Reform solicitation is slated to end on July 8, 2022.
