- What it does
- The goal of the State and Local Anti-Terrorism Training (SLATT) initiative is to support/address a priority of the DOJ to prevent, disrupt, and defeat terrorist operations before they occur by integrating intelligence and law enforcement efforts to achieve a coordinated response to terrorist threats. SLATT assists state, local, and tribal law enforcement in identifying, investigating, and preventing criminal acts of terror by providing training, technical assistance, and resources – at the national level – that build law enforcement’s knowledge and capacity to identify and respond to possible domestic terrorism. The goal of SLATT is accomplished through achieving the following programmatic objectives: • Increase the knowledge and capacity of local, state, and tribal criminal justice practitioners to detect, investigate, and interdict violent domestic terrorist acts through training. • Increase the ability and capacity of criminal justice practitioners to solve problems and improve policies/practices related to terrorism through short-term and comprehensive technical assistance. • Increase the volume of information provided to BJA and the criminal justice community. Performance Measure 1: Number of participants who successfully completed the training; Performance Measure 2: Percentage of participants trained and subsequently demonstrated performance improvement; Performance Measure 3: Number of curricula developed or updated; and, Performance Measure 4: Number of publications developed and disseminated.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
