U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts (R-KS) announced a $200,000 grant slated for use by the Unified Government in the area of law enforcement.

The UG will use the grant to support the Kansas City, Kan., Police Department's Victim Services Unit.

A 15-month long program will be funded to "continue law enforcement services and enhance the local criminal justice system to better serve the needs and improve the quality of life of its citizens," a press release from Roberts' office states.

The funds were awarded by the U.S. Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Assistance.
