Imagine that a group is seeking a $50,000 grant for the purpose of improving the processing and examination of DNA evidence collected pursuant to criminal investigations in a local police department. There are many DNA samples awaiting processing, and the funding is meant to help improve the process. The grant funding period is one year (12 months).

Establish a budget for the program. Include a spreadsheet detailing your budget, as well as a 350- to 700-word explanation for how it was decided to allocate the funds in the budget.
