The NICS Act Record Improvement Program (NARIP) provides to ensure the accuracy and completeness of records in the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). The program focuses on filling gaps related to the firearms check process. Like the NCHIP program, the Planning and Budgeting Bureau (PBB) serves as the designated pass-through entity and administers funds approved through the Florida Criminal Justice and Juvenile Justice Information System (CJJIS) Council’s Federal Funding Workgroup (FFWG) on an annual basis.

For more information on the state’s NARIP program, contact PBB at (850) 410-7237 or email OPBFunding@fdle.state.fl.us.
