At Angel Armor we believe there is nobility and purpose behind the
badge. We understand the job of a police officer requires sacrifice,
servant leadership and courage. Such qualities are often overlooked
or taken for granted — we believe they deserve to be applauded and
honored.
Our goal is to serve law enforcement by offering market-leading
proactive solutions that protect officers all day, in every situation.
Through advanced technologies our hope is to reduce the burden of
the officer and provide products allowing for efficient and effective
responses, as well as confidence they can stand behind.

What is the BVP? The Bulletproof Vest Partnership (BVP) is a reimbursement program initiated by the U.S. Department of Justice. The BVP equips state and local law enforcement with ballistic body armor — critical and life-saving equipment for LEOs across the country. For more information on the BVP, visit this webpage. How do I apply for the BVP? You can apply for the BVP in three easy steps:
Step 1: Online Registration — New users can provide contact and banking information throughout the year.
Step 2: Online Application — Identify the total number, type and projected cost of vests for the applicant’s eligible and participating Law Enforcement Officers.
The BVP program makes funding decisions three to four months after the “open application period” ends. Applicants are then notified via email regarding approved funding levels. Vests meeting applicable NIJ standards can be purchased through any vest distributor.
Step 3: Online Payment Requests — Once vests are delivered, complete an online receiving report and request for payment.
For additional video resources on how to apply, scroll to ‘BVP Video Demos’ on this webpage. IS THE BVP A GRANT PROGRAM? No, the BVP is not a grant program. It is a reimbursement program. How much time NEEDS to be allocated by the agency to apply, and what is the deadline? In general, most agencies spend between 2-3 hours gathering information and applying for the BVP. The application usually opens in April and closes six weeks from opening date. The BVP application only opens once per year. Program deadlines are prominently displayed on the BVP’s homepage, which can be found here.

What are the requirements for an agency to qualify? According to their website, the BVP program is open to “any recognized unit of general government (states, counties, federally recognized tribes, cities, and local jurisdictions) recognized by the U.S. Census Bureau that employs Law Enforcement Officers. The jurisdiction’s chief executive is required to complete the online registration and to provide general oversight and approval of key transactions between the BVP Program and the participating law enforcement agencies.” In addition, the program prioritizes agencies that have a jurisdictions of 100,000 or less, and funds are only allotted to for new officers or officers with expiring vests. How much may the agency apply for? An agency can apply for a 50% reimbursement on purchases up to $1200. For additional information on funding, visit this webpage. What does the reimbursement cover? The program is designed to pay up to 50% of the total cost of each vest in the application. It is suggested that the agency applies for the maximum amount of funding available. The agency can get reimbursed for vests, inserts, accessories required for wear and shipping. For additional information on what the reimbursement covers, click here. How long are reimbursements available for use once awarded? Funds will be available for 2 years from the day reimbursement funds are awarded. Does the agency have to make purchase decisions during The application process? No. An agency can apply for any approved body armor and later purchase another approved body armor product with their funds if they desire. It’s important to note that BVP funds may only be used to purchase equipment made in the USA and that meets applicable NIJ standards. For a full list of approved body armor, click here. Why should your agency choose the rise armor system? RISE is a premium soft body armor vest designed with front and rear internal rifle plate pockets that accept Angel Armor’s Truth SNAP hard armor rifle plates. Together, this system provides all-day rifle protection without sacrificing comfort or mobility.
Every active shooter situation starts with just that — a situation. The unfortunate reality is that active shooter kits are not being deployed on routine calls; the vast majority of officer-involved shootings are taking place on these routine calls. When paired with the Truth SNAP plate system, RISE provides proactive, all-day rifle protection so officers can respond to every situation with a tactical advantage.
The RISE vest and Truth SNAP plates meet all BVP funding requirements, are made in the USA and exceed NIJ standard requirements. Not only will the RISE Armor System give your officers a tactical advantage, it will save your agency money by consolidating equipment with an all-in-one protection system.
