Grants Management Branch
The Grants Management Branch (GMB) receives approximately $15-18 million on an annual basis from various federal grant programs to distribute to state and local criminal justice agencies and not-for-profit service providers. In 2009, GMB also received $17.8 million in American and Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds. These funds are disbursed through grant programs such as the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grants (JAG), Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), Victims of Crime Act (VOCA), and others. Each competitive grant program has its own objectives, allowable uses of funding, matching and eligibility requirements. GMB also adheres to specific policy priorities as set forth by the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Please see the Subdirectory of Grant Programs for specific information.
