With ARRA, the Byrne Justice Assistance "Direct" Grant Award will be available to many more local governments than usual. The Tennessee Association of Chiefs of Police (TACP) has teamed up with the Office of Criminal Justice Programs to bring informational seminars to three locations. County sheriffs and/or their representatives have been invited. OCJP will be available to answer questions. Agencies that have not an opportunity to apply and receive funds in the past are likely to be eligible for these monies. Additional information can be found at www.tacp.org.
