The Topeka Police Department (TPD) and Shawnee County Department of Corrections (DOC) have been allocated $91,620 through the Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program, for the purpose of purchasing mobile camera trailers and portable radios.
The JAG Program is administered by the U.S. Department of Justice and is a formula grant distributed to law enforcement every year. Since both TPD and DOC have jurisdiction in Topeka and Shawnee County, the grant will be shared equally between the two agencies.
