Opportunity Information: Apply for SMART 2012 3186
The SMART FY 12 Support for Adam Walsh Act Implementation Grant Program is designed to assist various jurisdictions in developing or improving their compliance with the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA). This program aims to ensure that all states, the District of Columbia, U.S. territories, and participating tribes maintain sex offender registries and that offenders register accurately in each area they occupy.
Key requirements under SORNA include the maintenance of comprehensive registries, a set duration for registration, mandatory in-person verification of identities, and participation in the national sex offender public website. The program encourages proposals that enhance jurisdictional efforts to implement SORNA or support ongoing compliance for those already meeting the requirements.
Applicants can suggest various strategies and projects, such as:
- Strengthening jurisdiction-wide SORNA implementation functions. - Improving infrastructure for processing sex offender data. - Enhancing information sharing among law enforcement agencies. - Converting documents to digital formats as mandated by SORNA. - Coordinating interagency efforts to improve compliance with SORNA. - Developing training programs for law enforcement and criminal justice personnel involved in sex offender management.
For tribal applicants, funding may support consortium initiatives for collaborative SORNA implementation, sharing resources such as equipment and services among multiple tribes.
State and territorial applicants are encouraged to support local government units in their registration activities and include details of their SORNA implementation working groups in their proposals. Successful applicants will be required to report on their working group activities in quarterly progress reports, except for those already recognized as substantially compliant with SORNA.Apply for SMART 2012 3186
