CEDAP: Technology Transfer for Law Enforcement Agencies
“Lafayette Group has provided program management and outreach services for the Commercial Equipment Direct Assistance Program (CEDAP), operated by the National Preparedness Directorate in response to a Congressional mandate. The program enables emergency responder agencies to acquire specialized commercial equipment through a direct transfer program. The application process is simple, so smaller jurisdictions and eligible metropolitan areas can acquire much needed equipment, such as detection and sensor devices, law enforcement information sharing software, and communications interoperability systems.top |

National Terrorism Policy Center: New Approaches to the Threat of Terrorism
The National Terrorism Policy Center was established by Congress to foster a dialogue about new approaches to the threat of terrorism. The Center provides funding for projects to strengthen the efforts by State and local law enforcement agencies to protect the American people from both domestic and international terrorism.
With funding from the Center, Lafayette Group supported Chiefs of Police and Sheriffs from the Nation’s major metropolitan areas to join together and establish recommended operational guidelines for law enforcement agencies. An unprecedented effort, these guidelines represent the unity of purpose and common commitment by law enforcement agencies to protect the public they serve. top |
