California Recovery Task Force

Public Safety

Public Safety Vehicles

California will receive Recovery Act dollars to help sustain and enhance funding for law enforcement and victims services.  Funding will go to state, local and tribal law enforcement and community based organizations to support hiring to combat violence against women, fight internet crimes against children, assist crime victims and support youth mentoring.  These efforts to reduce and eliminate domestic violence, crimes against children and help victims and improve the functioning of the justice system serve the dual purpose of creating and preserving jobs and stimulating economic growth.
