Commission reviews $60,000 Title 2 prevention grant application from RJA and partners
Summary
Commissioners reviewed a $60,000 Title 2 grant application proposed by RJA in partnership with Crawford County Mental Health to fund early delinquency-prevention programming (a prevention coordinator salary, benefits, travel and supplies) and heard program success metrics cited in the application.
A commissioner walked the board through a Title 2 grant application from RJA in collaboration with Crawford County Mental Health requesting $60,000 to establish an early delinquency-prevention initiative. The grant budget lists a prevention coordinator salary and benefits (about $34,009.67), travel, and supplies; the applicant describes prior performance metrics and an existing MOU with mental-health partners that would govern service delivery if the grant is awarded.
The presentation cited local socioeconomic statistics — approximately 20.6% of Crawford County residents live below the federal poverty level and the county's median family income figures — and summarized program measures (e.g., numbers served and success rates listed in the application). Commissioners discussed staffing implications and confirmed the proposal does not add county employees: the applicant would use existing staff and pay part of the coordinator position through grant funds if awarded.
