DATE: May 11, 1993 County
SUBJECT: Approve Submission of Funding Application #28-535
to the San Francisco Injury Center
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve submission of Funding Application #28-535 to the San Francisco
Injury Center in the amount of $653 ,874, for the period from August 1,
1993 through July 31, 1996, for the Centers for Disease Control (CDC)
Violence Prevention Evaluation Project.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Approval of this application will result in $653 , 874 of Federal
funding through the San Francisco Injury Center for the period August
1, 1993 through July 31, 1996. No County match is required.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
This Project will evaluate the Department's Prevention Program's
violence prevention efforts over the past ten years and will also
evaluate current efforts, primarily in the greater Richmond area.
Violence has been an increasingly troublesome problem in Contra Costa
County over the past several years. The County's Prevention Program
has been actively and increasingly involved in seeking solutions to
this problem, and has a well-conceived approach which has been
evaluated to the extent such resources have been available. Although
the program approach is promising and the County has drawn extensively
on current knowledge, evaluations of the scale proposed through this
Project are virtually unheard of, and sorely needed both locally and
in the field as a whole.
In order to meet the deadline for submission, the application has been
forwarded to the San Francisco Injury Center, but subject to Board
approval. Three certified copies of the Board Order authorizing
submission of the application should be returned to the Contracts and
Grants Unit.
