What is it?

The purpose of this program is to reduce gun crime in America through a unified offensive of cooperation between each US Attorney and Federal, State, and local law enforcement. Each district will implement the five core elements of this program:

  • Partnerships
  • Strategic planning
  • Training
  • Outreach
  • Accountability

There are multiple components for this program in FY 2007:

The purpose of this component is to achieve a reduction of gun crimes in each US Attorney (USA) district and sustain that reduction in the future. Each USA will implement the five core PSN elements mentioned above. The overall goal of this program is to create safer neighborhoods by reducing gun violence and gun crime and sustaining that reduction.

Per the program officer in FY 2006, districts may apply for up to the amount allocated, although they are not guaranteed to receive the full amount or any funding at all. This component is fully competitive. A formula is used to determine the maximum award amount only.

Typically, districts have used State or local governments as fiscal agents
