Summary

To get a grant for any fiscal year, a State, Indian tribal, or local prosecutor must send an application to the Attorney General together with the chief executive of the area where the program will run. The application must be in the form and include the information the Attorney General asks for. The application must ask for funds for the program, describe the communities to be helped and the youth crime, youth violence, and child abuse problems there, promise that federal money will add to—not replace—local funds, and provide required statistics. It must also include a plan that explains the problem, gives a step-by-step action plan tied to the program goals, lists local resources and gaps, and says how the grant will fill those gaps.
