ITEM:

Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding the city's acceptance of funds awarded from the Arizona Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force for the purpose such as training, investigations, computer forensics, and public awareness in connection with Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC).  (Miguel Alvarez, Police Lieutenant) 

SUMMARY:

The ICAC program is a national network of 61 coordinated task forces representing over 4,500 federal, state, and local law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies. These agencies are engaged in both proactive and reactive investigations, forensic investigations, and criminal prosecutions. By helping state and local agencies to develop effective, sustainable responses to online child victimization – including responses to the online sharing of child sexual abuse images, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) has increased the capacity of thousands of communities across the country to combat Internet crimes against children.  In FY 2019, ICAC task force programs conducted more than 81,000 investigations and 85,700 forensic exams. These efforts resulted in the arrests of more than 9,500 individuals. Additionally, the ICAC program trained over 39,570 law enforcement personnel, over 3,770 prosecutors, and more than 13,120 other professionals working in the ICAC field.
 
The ICAC Training and Technical Assistance Program was established to provide ICAC task forces and their affiliates with the training and technical assistance they need to conduct effective investigations and prosecutions.

The City of San Luis Police Department has been awarded funds in the amount of $5,000.00 from the Arizona Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force. Sub-award funds must be used directly-related costs, such as training, investigations, computer forensics, and public awareness in connection with ICAC.

RECOMMENDATION / SUGGESTED MOTION:

I MOVE TO APPROVE AND ACCEPT FUNDS AWARDED FROM THE ARIZONA INTERNET CRIMES AGAINST CHILDREN (ICAC) TASK FORCE AS PRESENTED AND ACCEPT FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE ICAC INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT.
