DISCUSSION
The State of California, Office of Emergency Management Agency provides grant funding to state law
enforcement agencies through the California Gang Reduction, Intervention and Prevention Program
Fund (CAL GRIP). This competitive grant program is part of the State's commitment to combating
gang and youth violence and is awarded to cities and community-based organizations with a heavy
concentration of gangs.
The Santa Ana Police Department's Police Athletic and Activities League (SAPAAL) in a
collaborative effort with additional government agencies, educational partners and community based
groups, submitted and has been awarded CAL GRIP grant funding. This funding will provide the
SAPAAL and its partners with the resources to enhance its established gang prevention and
intervention programs with the objective of increasing participation of at-risk youth by as much as
20%. This two-year grant requires a 100% match on the part of the City. The Police Departments in-
kind match includes the salary and benefits of one Police Officer, and a portion of the SAPAAL
Assistant Director position. Funds from this match requirement are budgeted in the General Fund
and the Police Criminal Activity Fund.
