Allocation of Title V Resources
Over the past six years (1994 to 1999), 885 communities3 in 49 States4, Washington, D.C., and four territories have received Title V Community Prevention Grants Program subgrants. The Program has provided the framework, tools, and funding necessary for communities to effectively mobilize resources, assess need, and address local juvenile crime problems. This chapter begins with a description of Federal Title V allocations to date. The next section describes State and local subgrant awards, including additional sources of Federal and State funds that have been used to support the Community Prevention Grants Program process at the local level. The Final Section looks at State utilization of supplemental funds in meeting the demand for additional support for prevention initiatives.
