Over $200,000 in Grants to Texas Department of Public Safety

Support the Criminal Law Enforcement Reporting Information System

Governor Rick Perry has announced the award of $200,094 in grants to the Texas Department of Public Safety to support the Criminal Law Enforcement Reporting Information System (CLERIS) and the Texas Amber Alert Network.

CLERIS affords law enforcement across the state the ability to store, access and share criminal history information through a secure database system. The Texas Amber Alert Network provides 24-hour support to local law enforcement agencies that report and investigate child abduction cases, and issues both regional and statewide public alerts for emergency child abduction cases.

Each year, CJD awards more than $113 million in grants for a variety of juvenile justice, criminal justice and victim services programs.
