Description: The Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS Office) is the component of the U.S. Department of Justice responsible for advancing the practice of community policing by the nation&#8217;s state, local, territorial, and tribal law enforcement agencies through information and grant resources. To date, the COPS Office has been appropriated more than $21 billion to advance community policing, including grants awarded to more than 13,000 state, local, territorial, and tribal law enforcement agencies to fund the hiring and redeployment of nearly 140,000 officers. COPS Office information resources, covering a wide range of community policing topics such as school and campus safety, violent crime, and officer safety and wellness, can be downloaded via the COPS Office&#8217;s home page, https://cops.usdoj.gov. The FY25 COPS Anti-Methamphetamine Program (CAMP) provides funding directly to state law enforcement agencies in States with high seizures of precursor chemicals, finished methamphetamine, laboratories, and laboratory dump seizures for the purpose of locating or investigating illicit activities, such as precursor diversion, laboratories, or methamphetamine traffickers. By providing funding for additional law enforcement, civilian, and task force personnel, training, and equipment, the program seeks to increase the number of hours devoted to statewide task forces, increase the number and variety of agencies participating in task forces, and enhance the analytical capability of task forces. As community policing is common sense policing, throughout the CAMP Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) materials, the terms &#8220;community policing&#8221; and &#8220;common sense policing&#8221; are used interchangeably, unless otherwise specified. Note: CAMP funds may not be used for clandestine drug laboratory cleanup, treatment programs, or prosecution of methamphetamine-related activities
