LAW ENFORCEMENT

In order for law enforcement agencies to be successful in their search for funding, they must have a grant proposal that is competitive, which can be difficult as many agencies do not have a skilled grant writer. Grants tend to go to a selection of departments across the country who have highly skilled grant writers. This results in a disproportionate allocation of grant funds and creates an uneven level of readiness in the law enforcement network. A system break down is possible if a large scale crisis should occur. More consistent allocation of funds and improvement of agencies and departments could result in operations that are functioning at the same high level, resulting in greater safety and effectiveness. We need only look to New Orleans post-Katrina to see what is at stake.

The Back Up Training Corporation and Bright Star Grant Consultants have developed a self contained interactive CD-Rom computer training for law enforcement grant writing. Joe Lewis, Grant Administrator for the King County Sheriff’s Office Washington State, was a vital resource in the development of this training. This course is designed for officers to learn grant writing at their own pace and at their own convenience. The disk also includes extensive resources to save time and to help officers be informed and competitive.

The CD-Rom also works well as a component to workshops. There are many custom configurations to how workshops and the CD-Rom can be put together to accommodate the staff/time/content needs of law enforcement departments.
