The New York State (NYS) Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) seeks requests for reimbursement from state and local law enforcement agencies that engaged in security-related activities for the President-elect during the period from 11:00pm Eastern Standard Time (EST) November 9, 2016 through 12:00 Noon (EST) January 20, 2017.
DCJS, as the State Administering Agency (SAA) for federal criminal justice funds, will apply to Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) on behalf of New York State’s law enforcement agencies for the $7 million being made available nationally through the FY 2017 President-Elect Security Assistance Reimbursement Grant Program. Awards will be made at the discretion of BJA on a pro-rata basis.
Applications from state and local law enforcement agencies must be submitted to DCJS using the DCJS Grants Management System (GMS). If you need assistance with accessing and using GMS, please contact the DCJS Office of Program Development and Funding GMS Help Desk at (518) 457-9787. See Appendix: GMS Helpful Hints.
Applicants will be advised of BJA’s funding decision via a letter of notification from DCJS, which will be emailed to the address provided by applicant in GMS. Where applicable, applicants not receiving an award will receive notification via email and by U.S. Postal Service mail.
Should New York State be successful in receiving funding under this opportunity, the grant contract period will be negotiated.
This funding may only be used to reimburse for extraordinary law enforcement overtime costs directly and solely associated with the security required to protect the President-elect during the Presidential transition period.
