The Sealy Police Department is proud to announce that it has been awarded a Texas Motor Vehicle Crime Prevention Authority (MVCPA) grant for the second year in a row. The announcement was made last week while department staff attended the annual MVCPA Conference in Fort Worth.
This recurring grant provides essential funding to support the departmentโs ongoing efforts to combat catalytic converter thefts and other forms of motor vehicle crime in the Sealy area. With this financial support from the MVCPA grant, Sealy PD can continue to invest in specialized equipment, investigative tools, and targeted enforcement strategies aimed at reducing auto-related crime and protecting the community.

The MVCPA Conference, hosted by the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, brings together law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, vehicle industry professionals, and state officials from across Texas. The event offers comprehensive training sessions, expert-led workshops, and networking opportunities focused on best practices in preventing and investigating motor vehicle crimes, including auto theft, fraud, and catalytic converter theft. Topics covered include the latest trends in vehicle-related crimes, data sharing tools, undercover tactics, and legislative updates.
Participating in the conference ensures that departments like Sealy PD stay informed, connected, and well-equipped to address evolving threats. The experience also provides valuable continuing education for officers and fosters statewide collaboration in the fight against auto crime. The Sealy Police Department extended its gratitude to the MVCPA for its continued support and for offering such a valuable training and resource-sharing platform. This grant not only strengthens local crime prevention efforts but also enhances public safety across Austin County.
