Commercial Equipment Direct Assistance Program (CEDAP)
CEDAP helps meet the equipment needs of smaller jurisdictions by providing communications interoperability, information sharing, chemical detection,
sensors, personal protective equipment, technology, and training in using the equipment, devices, and technology. Awards are made to law enforcement and
emergency responder agencies not currently eligible for funding through the Department’s Urban Areas Security Initiative grant program.
