About the U.S. Department of Justice Byrne Criminal Justice Innovation Grant

With this grant, the Madison Police Department was able to buy the trailer. During this process, we partnered with Common Wealth Development and other non-profit organizations. The grant helps build social efficacy, safety and partnerships within neighborhoods. This trailer is one piece in our plan to achieve these goals.
