TO: <br />FROM: <br />DATE: <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br /> #llfl I:AABLINi <br /> <br />Frank Clifton, County Manager <br />Jim Cook, Social Services Direct~ <br />6-14-oo <br />Child Protection Team Grant <br /> <br /> The Cabarrus County Child Protection Team has developed a grant proposal in <br />response to a NC Department of Health and Human Services request for proposals. The <br />grant would be channeled through the Department of Social Services. I am submitting <br />the proposal for consideration by the Board of Commissioners in relation to the <br />requirement that it approve applications by county agencies for grants. <br /> <br /> The $50,000 grant requested would provide for a public information effort on <br />measures which can improve child safety. Included would be the development and <br />presentation of television public info~mation announcements promoting such safety <br />measures as using child safety seats and making safe crib arrangements for infants. No <br />matching funds are required for these grants. <br /> <br /> The Child Protection Team has done excellent work for the children of the <br />community over the years. This grant application is pursued by the Team in response to <br />observations it has made concerning child injuries that have occurred. I heartily endorse <br />the application for this grant. <br /> <br />Thank you. <br /> <br /> Department of Social Services <br />1303 South Cannon Blvd. Kannapolis, NC 28083 (704)939-1400 <br /> <br /> <br />
