PUBLIC SAFETY WORKFORCE BUILDING PROGRAM

Summary

The bill establishes the Public Safety Workforce Building Program, a grant system administered by the state department to help law‑enforcement, fire, corrections, and district attorney/public defender offices hire and keep staff and buy needed equipment. Grants are awarded through a competitive process that favors areas with high vacancy rates, high crime, and high cost of living, and they must be spent within two years. Recipients must report spending regularly and return any unused money to the fund.
