The Office of Prosecution Services in Montgomery was among two others to receive grants from the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs (ADECA) totaling $240,000.
“These funds will support victims from the initial investigations to prosecution and restitution,” said Gov. Kay Ivey. “I am pleased to award these grants giving law enforcement much-needed resources to pursue domestic violence cases and assist survivors of domestic violence as their cases advance through the criminal justice system.”
The Office of Prosecution Services received $148,786 to provide assistance in the Alabama criminal and civil justice system to victims of domestic violence.
“The programs funded by these grants will help keep communities safe and support the pursuit of justice,” said ADECA Director Kenneth Boswell. “ADECA joins Gov. Ivey in recognizing the commendable work done by deputies and prosecutors in these sensitive cases.”
