Project Grant 15PSMA25GG02112AWAX

The Nebraska State Patrol received a Project Grant award of $322,973 from the Office of Sex Offender Sentencing Monitoring Apprehending Registering and Tracking under the Support for Adam Walsh Act Implementation Grant Program (CFDA 16.750) for the period March 1, 2026 through February 28, 2029. The award funds four full-time staff positions—three administrative specialists and one administrative technician—to support the state's sex offender registration and notification operations. These positions are essential for processing sex offender registrations in compliance with National Crime Information Center/National Sex Offender Registry (NCIC/NSOR) rules and Federal Bureau of Investigation audits.

The funded staff positions deliver critical sex offender registry administrative services including jail tracking monitoring, verification letter processing, court name change checks, offender relocation tracking, and Sex Offender Registry document filing. Additionally, the positions support verification non-compliance processing, validation packet management, relocation and re-offense alert processing, and digitization of sex offender records. One administrative specialist is dedicated to acquiring and processing mandatory documents required for accurate offender tiering. These operational activities strengthen Nebraska's capacity to maintain a current and compliant sex offender registry as required under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA).
