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:

  • (Part A): General Funding
  • (Part B): Anti-Gang Initiative

The purpose of this component is to support new and expanded anti-gang prevention and enforcement efforts. These new funds will enhance PSN task force efforts to combat gangs by building on the strategies and partnerships developed through PSN. Goals of the program include:

  • Reducing the occurrence of violent gang-related incidents through reactive and proactive efforts; and
  • Reducing the occurrence of youth gang-related incidents and increasing positive outcomes for youth at high risk for gang involvement through targeted, evidenced-based gang prevention.

The funding for this program is allocated by formula, and all districts will receive the full allocation. The formula is constructed using crime and population factors. Typically, districts have used State or local governments as fiscal agents.
