2006
Gang Resistence Education
and Training Program
The federal Bureau of Justice Assistance
will award grants of up to $250,000 under its 2006 Gang Resistance
Education and Training (G.R.E.A.T.) Program. Applications
are due February 2, 2006, for the G.R.E.A.T. grants, which
support the delivery of the anti-gang involvement, violence prevention,
and positive life skills program to middle school students. Similar
to DARE, the program is delivered by certified law enforcement officers,
usually in a classroom setting. Governments and schools may apply
for funding. For more information, see the G.R.E.A.T. website, the
grant announcement, or the full request for applications at www.ojp.usdoj.gov/BJA/grant/06GREATsol.pdf.
