JUSTICE ASSISTANCE GRANT - LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT (JAG-LLE)
The JAG-LLE Program replaces the Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEGB).Through the JAG-LLE Program, funding is made available to units of local law enforcement and tribal governments for the purchase of equipment.
ELIGIBILITY: To apply for a JAG-LLE award through the District Attorneys Council, a jurisdiction must: 1)be ineligible for a direct JAG Grant with BJA, and 2)must submit crime report information. Oklahoma State Statue #74 O.S. § 150.10 requires all state, county, city and town law enforcement agencies to submit crime reports to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation.
If a jurisdiction is ineligible to apply directly to BJA, and is reporting crime report information, that jurisdiction is eligible to apply for a JAG LLE award through the District Attorneys Council.
Police departments and sheriff's offices must apply through their county commission or city council. Private/nonprofit organizations, campus security departments, jails, and state agencies are NOT eligible to apply for this funding.
For more information on reporting crime report information, contact the OSBI Field Services at 405-879-2533.
