This will be accomplished through development grants (one-year grants, $50,000) and program grants (three-year grants, $300,000):
Development grants: Develop strong agencies and effective responses on crime and safety problems. These may include Capacity-Building Projects, Planning Projects and Special Projects.
Program grants: Establish effective responses on crime and safety problems in the community.
