The Grants Management Unit manages federal grants assigned to the New Hampshire Department of Justice by the Governor. These federal grants deal with various aspects of criminal justice and fall into four general categories: preventing crime; investigating and prosecuting crime; incarceration; and, aiding crime victims. The Grants Management Unit currently manages seventeen different federal grant programs from three federal agencies. Subgrants from these grant programs are given to approximately 100 other state government, county government, local government and nonprofit agencies around New Hampshire.
