Recovery Act - Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (Recovery-LLEBG/JAG) Program

THIS WEBSITE IS APPLICABLE TO MISSOURI AGENCIES ONLY

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) was signed into law by President Obama on February 17, 2009. The Recovery Act provided additional LLEBG/JAG funding for state and local agencies within the State of Missouri.

Recovery-LLEBG/JAG contracts administered by the Missouri Department of Public Safety, Office of the Director, are awarded to law enforcement agencies through their respective city or county unit of government. Short-term contracts are awarded in amounts up to $10,000 (must equal $9,999.99 or less) for purchase of equipment directly related to basic law enforcement functions and officer safety. (Local governments entitled to at least $10,000 awards shall apply directly to BJA for their local JAG grant and are thereby ineligible to apply to DPS for LLEBG/JAG funding.
