Ohio Narcotics Intelligence Center

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine signed an executive order in July 2019 creating a specialized criminal intelligence unit to assist local law enforcement in conducting intelligence-driven drug trafficking investigations.

ARPA Funding for Law Enforcement, First Responders

$175 million in ARPA funds will support the work of state and local law enforcement to prevent and solve crimes in communities that have experienced an increase in or faced difficulties with combatting violence during the pandemic. ARPA funding ends Dec. 31, 2024.

First Responder Wellness

First responders face an increased risk of experiencing behavioral health issues including mental illness and substance abuse disorders. Fear of being seen as weak or not up to the job of a first responder keeps many from seeking help. Responders can build their resilience by increasing awareness about risk factors and warning signs, talking with each other, and using healthy coping strategies.
