Virginia law enforcement agencies are the host agencies for Virginia Rules Camps. The Office of the Attorney General can provide funding and guidance, and can help law enforcement agencies make connections with volunteer groups in their area to help with planning. But the responsibility for hosting the camp remains with the law enforcement agency.
Instructions for law enforcement agencies applying for camp funding
During the summer of 2022, the OAG will help with a few select camps across the Commonwealth, but has not opened up a state-wide application process. Please start making your plans for 2023 now!
Applications for the summer of 2023 must be received no later than 5:00 PM on Friday, April 7, 2023. Mail, hand-deliver, e-mail, or fax grant applications to:

Potential law enforcement grantees are encouraged (but not required) to participate in a conference call about the Virginia Rules Camp program for more information about camp best practices and grant proposal tips. The call will be scheduled for March 2023. Look for more information to come.
