ABOUT THE CPD LAW ENFORCEMENT PRODUCTS AND RESOURCES PROGRAM

Community Policing Development (CPD) funds are used to develop the capacity of law enforcement to implement community policing strategies by providing guidance on promising practices through the development and testing of innovative strategies; building knowledge about effective practices and outcomes; and supporting new, creative approaches to preventing crime and promoting safe communities.

The FY 2024 CPD Law Enforcement Products and Resources program will fund projects that will develop products and resources on law enforcement topics, specifically designed for national distribution that offer creative ideas that advance crime fighting, community engagement, problem solving, or organizational changes in support of community policing. Proposed initiatives must be national in scope, which the COPS Office defines as intentionally developed to benefit agencies nationwide, not just a specific state or region. Examples of the types of products and resources that the COPS Office generally distributes include the following:

  • Online or in-person training curricula
  • Guidebooks
  • Emerging issues forums
  • Policy guides
  • Promising practices
  • Pilot programs, case studies, or evaluations
  • Roll-call videos
  • Podcasts or webinars
  • Self-assessment tools
  • Interactive websites
