Drummond awards sheriff's office assistance grants to all 77 Oklahoma counties

OKLAHOMA CITY (July 6, 2026) – Attorney General Gentner Drummond's office has awarded $18 million in grant funding to support every county sheriff's office in Oklahoma. The funding is the latest round of an ongoing program the Legislature created in 2024 to strengthen law enforcement services statewide.

Grants ranging from $150,000 to $300,000 have been awarded to all 77 counties based on their total tangible property valuation. Funds can be used for sheriff's office operations, including training, technology, equipment, capital improvements, stipends and more.

Drummond said the funding reflects a continued commitment to public safety in every corner of the state.

"Rural sheriff's offices are stretched thin, and this funding gives them real resources to serve their communities," he said. "I'm glad to see this program continue to deliver for all 77 counties, and I thank the Oklahoma Sheriffs' Association and county sheriffs for their partnership in putting these dollars to work."

Grant funding was established by the legislature and appropriated to the Attorney General's office through this year's state budget.
