Applicants Eligible for this Grant: Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)
Additional Information on Eligibility: Only those 46 state and local law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies serving as grantees in the ICAC Task Force Program are eligible to receive funding under this solicitation. OJJDP will not accept applications from applicants who are not currently receiving funds under the ICAC Task Force Program.
Grant Description: The Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force Program helps state and local law enforcement agencies develop an effective response to online enticement and child pornography cases. This assistance encompasses forensic and investigative components, training and technical assistance, victim services, and community education. ICAC Task Forces have been established throughout the nation. The ICAC Program was developed in response to the increasing number of children and teenagers using the Internet, the proliferation of child pornography, and the heightened online activity by sexual predators searching for unsupervised contact with underage victims. The 1998 Conference Report for the FY 1998 Justice Appropriations Act (Pub. L. No. 105-119) directed OJJDP to create a national network of state and local law enforcement task forces to investigate cases of child sexual exploitation (i.e., ICAC). The ICAC Task Force Program is funded under Title IV of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 5775-5777. ICAC Task Forces are central to the effective execution of Project Safe Childhood, a Department of Justice initiative. Inadequate forensic services are a potential barrier to achieving the common goals of the ICAC program and Project Safe Childhood. The ability to involve investigators and analysts with computer forensic expertise is essential for the viability of an ICAC Task Force. As described below, innovative approaches to address this problem have been deployed in some instances. This solicitation seeks applications designed to promote and support the development of capacity to meet the need for effective and efficient forensic examination of evidence in cases of child exploitation. It is permissible to use grant funds for salary and benefits costs.
