RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to apply for and accept a grant in an amount up to $8,000 from Contra Costa County Keller Canyon Mitigation Trust fund for gang intervention programs.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$8,000, 100% Keller Canyon Mitigation Funds. No County match.

BACKGROUND:

Early prevention programs that target youth at risk of gang involvement helps reduce the number of youth who join gangs. Intervention programs and strategies provide sanctions and services for younger youth who are at risk of joining gangs. This program will involve movie nights at the local schools, an after school sports program, fishing trips in the Delta as well as trips to A's game and other activities that arise during the year.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Office of the Sheriff would not be able to identify and reach at risk youths before they join a gang or associate with gang members.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

By creating early prevention programs this will make a safer environment for the children of Bay Point.
