Grants are a great source of
money to buy equipment that is needed, but often
unavailable to departments because of tight budgets and
other priorities. The grants do take some effort to
research, locate, request, and administer. But the
benefits are well worth the effort to departments that
take advantage of the offers.
We're helping with part of that effort. We know that
night vision syatems and thermal cameras are a force multiplier enabling
law enforcement officers and firefighters to do their jobs more
effectively, with less manpower, and with a degree of
safety that would not otherwise be available to them.
If you have questions on the 1122 program,
please contact your State Point-of-Contact or

Excess Property Programs, cell phone (512) 826-9660;

Grant Resource Assistance
Grants
are an excellent source of money for equipment purchases
such as thermal imagers and night vision scopes. Grants
take a bit of effort to research, locate, and administer
but the outcome is often well worth it.
