LACRTC is a Corporate Affiliate of CAL-MASS
California Multi Agency Support Services (CAL-MASS), a non-profit organization, was formed to assist Local, State and Federal public services agencies with training, technical support for investigative purposes, field operations, consulting and technical assistance during emergency situations.
CAL-MASS is primarily funded through private and corporate donations as well as State and Federal grants. Our main focus is to eliminate the ever-growing red tape and political roadblocks often associated with multi-agency support services and provide whatever technical services that are needed in the shortest amount of time possible.
All too often technology is overlooked, partially because of the way operations have been conducted for the last fifty years, but mainly because of shrinking budgets, over-tasked employees, and the lack of technically skilled personnel. Often, smaller agencies and departments can no longer afford to staff units dedicated to technical investigations, thereby causing them to lose one of the greatest investigative tools available to them.
CAL-MASS, through its services, will benefit the community and work to “Lessen the Burdens of Government” by raising funding, primarily through Federal and State grants, as well as corporate and private donations. This will allow CAL-MASS to perform a multitude of services such as but not limited to education and training programs, technical assistance and investigative consulting, field support, mobile and emergency communications and community programs and services.
