On July 28, Vice President Joe Biden announced that the Department of Justice
COPS Office has awarded $1 billion in Recovery Act funding through its COPS
Hiring Recovery Program (CHRP) to state, local and tribal law enforcement to
create and/or preserve nearly 5,000 law enforcement positions.
The COPS Office has prepared a CHRP Announcement Toolkit that provides
additional information on how the application was created, reviewed and final
awards were selected. Included for your review is the final award list; CHRP
applicant rankings by state; state summary sheets that includes the number of
agencies that applied and were awarded, dollars requested and awarded, and a
list of agencies awarded; frequently asked questions and the methods used to
develop and evaluate CHRP applications.
