JAG, Coverdell's formula grants and Homeland Security grants reach North Dakota agencies through state offices. Here's who runs each one, how to reach them, and what North Dakota gets this year.
The state office applies for North Dakota's share and sub-awards it to local agencies. Larger cities and counties also get their own direct award from BJA.
Formula grants go to the state office, which funds labs and ME offices across North Dakota. The competitive track is separate: a lab applies to BJA itself.
No state office: each government in North Dakota that runs an eligible public DNA lab applies to BJA itself. All of North Dakota's labs share one estimated pool and must coordinate their requests.
The state administering agency receives it and must pass at least 80% to local and tribal governments. Purchases have to support terrorism preparedness, and equipment must be on FEMA's list.
Every other program we track, including SAKI, the NIJ research grants, ME/C Strengthening and the competitive DOJ programs, is applied for directly with the federal agency, not through North Dakota. See when each one opens →
