  • Salaries and contracts for mental health professionals
  • Purchase or lease of nonpatrol vehicles for crisis response programs
  • Costs associated with training for and equipping personnel

Grantees will also have the opportunity to participate at no cost in an ongoing community of practice with other COPS Office awardees and receive training and technical assistance from the crisis intervention training provider.
