About Law Enforcement Personnel Dependents (LEPD) Grant
LEPD addresses specific family circumstances involving public-safety personnel killed or disabled while serving in California.
CSAC describes aid for dependents or spouses of eligible employees affected in the line of duty; covered peace-officer, firefighter, and other categories must be checked against the governing rules. CSAC links award levels to Cal Grant, but amount and duration depend on the cycle, institution, and individual eligibility. Do not assume every public employee or relative qualifies.
Contact CSAC Student Support and request LEPD instructions; gather official proof of relationship, employment, and the line-of-duty event. Complete FAFSA or CADAA as applicable and ask the college to review your file, but verify with CSAC whether a specialized application or separate deadline applies. The CA.gov directory lists 888-224-7268 and studentsupport@csac.ca.gov as general contacts.
