Quinsigamond Community College Gets $59K In Public Safety Grants

WORCESTER, MA — Quinsigamond Community College in Worcester was recently awarded $59,912 in public safety grants.

Funding from the Massachusetts Executive Office of Public Safety and Security will allow QCC police to connect to the Motor Vehicle Automated Citation and Crash System, a platform for electronic traffic citation and crash data collection and reporting.

In August, QCC also received a $5,000 Military and First Responder Grant, which will be used to support the transition to using MACCS. It will help QCC police to streamline citation and crash reporting, allowing officers to spend more time in the community, increase visibility and prevent crime.

“QCC Campus Police are committed to modernizing our operations to better serve and protect our community,” said QCC Chief of Police Stephen DiGiovanni. “These grant funds will help us replace outdated manual processes with state-of-the-art equipment that connects to the Motor
Vehicle Automated Citation and Crash System, which is hosted by the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles.”
