Round Two of the Intensive Comprehensive Training Program

ICPOET pre-RFP Info SessionsThe Intensive Comprehensive Peace Officer Education and Training (ICPOET) Grant Program provides grant funding to assist Minnesota law enforcement agencies with hiring! The ICPOET appropriation is designed to recruit candidates who may be interested in a career transition into law enforcement. 

At the beginning of June, the Minnesota Department of Public Safety's Office of Justice Programs (OJP) will announce the first round of law enforcement agencies who received ICPOET grant funding. Shortly thereafter, OJP will open its second request for proposal (RFP) period for law enforcement agencies to apply for this program.

Interested law enforcement agencies can learn more about this funding opportunity during a series of pre-RFP virtual information sessions.

MMIR Team Attends AMBER Alert Training

MMIR Team Attends AMBER Alert Training

When a loved one goes missing, knowing what resources are available to bring them safely home is key. 

That's why our MMIR Office recently attended a training at Grand Portage with the AMBER Alert in Indian Country team and the National Criminal Justice Training Center. The goal is to provide training for public safety officials to:

  • Assist Tribal communities in developing programs to safely recover endangered missing or abducted children.
  • Enhance response capacities and capabilities.
  • Increase public participation in protecting children.
