The Department of Justice Community Oriented Policing Program awarded the Arkansas State Police $200,000 on October 1, 2025, under the Law Enforcement Mental Health and Wellness Act (LEMHWA, CFDA 16.070) to expand its Frontline program.

The Frontline program provides mental health and wellness support to spouses and significant others of Arkansas State Police trooper recruits and CLEST Basic Academy cadets. Programming delivers accessible, practical tools for managing stress, navigating change, building community, and developing personal and interpersonal growth. The recipient will engage a dedicated research team to evaluate program outcomes and drive continuous improvement through measurable data.

Performance occurs in Little Rock, Arkansas, with a period of performance extending through September 30, 2027. Recipients are responsible for semiannual programmatic performance reports and quarterly SF-425 Federal Financial Reports, and must comply with COPS Office award monitoring activities, including site visits and enhanced office-based reviews.
