THE REGIONAL GANG UNIT, A MULTI-AGENCY GANG TASK FORCE IS REQUESTING $68,000 AND WILL ADDRESS THE SHORTFALLS OF INTELLIGENCE GATHERING, INFORMATION SHARING, SUPPRESSION, AND DIVERSION/DETERRENCE THAT WASHOE COUNTY AND OUR NORTHERN NEVADA REGION IS EXPERIENCING. THIS PROJECT INTENDS TO ESTABLISH SUSTAINABLE OPERATIONS, COLLABORATION WITH OTHER AGENCIES, AND METHODS OF INFORMATION SHARING AMONGST THE STAKEHOLDERS OF THIS PROGRAM IN ORDER TO POSITIVELY IMPACT THE EFFECTIVENESS THAT LAW ENFORCEMENT HAS ON GANG CRIMES IN THE NORTHERN NEVADA REGION. THE REGIONAL GANG UNITÃƑ¢â€ŠÂ¬Ã¢Â€ŽÂ¢S (RGU) SUCCESS IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON THE INTELLIGENCE IT GENERATES, AS WELL AS ITS EFFORTS TO REDUCE VIOLENT CRIMES THROUGH PROACTIVE ENFORCEMENT. OUR SUPPRESSION EFFORTS HAVE PROVEN TO BE VITAL IN REDUCING OR STOPPING CONTINUED VIOLENCE AND/OR RETALIATION, WHEN VIOLENT CRIMES INVOLVING GANGS OCCUR. INTELLIGENCE IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO CRIME CLEARANCE RATES. THIS PROJECT WILL ALLOW RGU TO WORK CLOSELY WITH NEIGHBORING AGENCIES TO ESTABLISH PROGRAMS IN THEIR JURISDICTION, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY IMPROVING THE COLLECTION AND DISSEMINATION OF INTELLIGENCE THAT IS VITAL IN IMPACTING GANG VIOLENCE. DIVERSION PROGRAMS AND EFFORTS CAN ALSO BE SHARED WITH NEIGHBORING PARTNERS TO MITIGATE GANG RECRUITMENT. 		10/1/2021 9/30/2025 Sub $68,000.00

Los Angeles County, California COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES, DEPARTMENT OF ARTS AND CULTURE
THE OVERALL GOAL OF THE COUNTY'S CRIME REDUCTION AND PUBLIC SAFETY IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVE IS TO REDUCE CRIME AND IMPROVE PUBLIC SAFETY. PERSONAL AND COMMUNITY SAFETY IS RECOGNIZED AS BEING ONE OF OUR MOST BASIC NEEDS. THE COUNTY HAS BEEN WORKING IN A COOPERATIVE EFFORT WITH VARIOUS JUSTICE AND LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES TO TARGET STREET GANGS WITH THE USE OF SEARCH WARRANTS, ARRESTS, AND THE SEIZURE OF FIREARMS AND WEAPONS. IT IS MOST IMPORTANT FOR PERPETRATORS OF VIOLENT GANG CRIMES TO BE IDENTIFIED, ARRESTED, PROSECUTED, AND CONVICTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH LAW. THIS IS DONE TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC FROM CRIME THAT CAN RUIN THE LOCAL ECONOMY, AND HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR ALL PERSONS. DEVELOPING SPECIFIC STRATEGIES THAT TARGET AND FOCUS ON VERTICAL GANG PROSECUTION PROGRAMS WILL SUPPRESS ORGANIZED CRIMINAL GANG BEHAVIOR AND CONTROL THE IMPACT OF GANGS ON OUR COMMUNITY. ANOTHER COMPONENT OF THE COUNTY'S INITIATIVE IS THE MANAGEMENT OF PROBATIONERS IN ORDER TO PREVENT NEW CRIMES. THE COUNTY'S PROBATION DEPARTMENT ADMINISTERS A VARIETY OF SERVICES TO HEIGHTEN AND PROMOTE PUBLIC SAFETY. COUNTY PROBATION OFFICERS WORK IN A COLLABORATIVE MANNER WITH OTHER LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES TO PREVENT AND REDUCE CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR BY HOLDING PROBATIONERS ACCOUNTABLE THROUGH CASE MANAGEMENT, SUPERVISION, AND MONITORING. PUBLIC SAFETY IS ENHANCED WHEN OFFENDERS ARE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND REDIRECTED FROM DELINQUENT AND CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR. STRATEGIES TO POSITIVELY IMPACT THE BEHAVIOR OF PROBATIONERS AND AT-RISK YOUTH THROUGH EARLY INTERVENTION AND SUPPRESSION PROGRAMS ARE A KEY ELEMENT OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY'S CRIME REDUCTION AND PUBLIC SAFETY IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVE. 		10/1/2021 9/30/2025 Sub $1,175,619.34

Cincinnati, Ohio COUNTY OF CLERMONT
THE CLERMONT COUNTY NARCOTICS TASK FORCE IS A MULTI-JURISDICTIONAL NARCOTICS TASK FORCE THAT HAS BEEN SERVING THE CITIZENS OF CLERMONT COUNTY FOR 34 YEARS. THE TASK FORCE FOCUSES ON COMBATTING THE SALE AND ABUSE OF ILLICIT DRUGS IN CLERMONT COUNTY. ALL OF THE DRUG INTELLIGENCE GATHERED THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY IS MAINTAINED AND RECORDED AT THE TASK FORCE. THIS INFORMATION COMES FROM TASK FORCE AGENTS, LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENTS, CRIMINAL SUSPECTS, DRUG ABUSERS AND CITIZENS' TIPS. ALL INFORMATION IS CONTAINED WITHIN THE SOLVE DATABASE. THE TASK FORCE IS COMPRISED OF SEVEN FULL TIME LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS FROM THE FOUR LARGEST POLICE AGENCIES WITHIN CLERMONT COUNTY. PERSONNEL ASSIGNED TO THE TASK FORCE RECEIVE SPECIALIZED TRAINING IN ALL ASPECTS OF NARCOTICS INVESTIGATIONS, RANGING FROM STREET LEVEL ENFORCEMENT TO THE ELEMENTS NECESSARY TO DISMANTLE AND PROSECUTE COMPLEX DRUG TRAFFICKING ORGANIZATIONS. A COLLABORATIVE CONTROL GROUP IDENTIFIES AND GUIDES THE OBJECTIVES OF THE TASK FORCE WITH SPECIFIC ASSESSMENT GUIDES BEING UTILIZED TO CONTINUOUSLY EVALUATE THE TASK FORCES EFFECTIVENESS. THE TASK FORCE SERVES AS THE CENTRAL REPOSITORY FOR ALL DRUG INTELLIGENCE THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY, PROVIDING A TIMELY EVALUATION FOR DEALING WITH DRUG TRENDS, BOTH LONG AND SHORT TERM. THROUGH A PRUDENT HOLISTIC APPROACH, THE CLERMONT COUNTY NARCOTICS TASK FORCE WILL ASSERT ITS EFFORTS IN SEEKING THE ARREST AND CONVICTION OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS INVOLVED IN ILLEGAL DRUG ACTIVITY AND ITS ASSOCIATED CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. THE TASK FORCE WILL ALSO CONTINUE ITS PARTNERSHIP WITH EDUCATION, PREVENTION & TREATMENT SYSTEMS TO ENSURE THAT COMMUNITY OUTREACH IS ACCOMPLISHED BY TEACHING CITIZENS THE CONSEQUENCES OF ILLICIT DRUG ABUSE AND TO PROVIDE RESOURCES FOR PREVENTION, REHABILITATION AND RECOVERY. CLERMONT COUNTY IS APPROXIMATELY 20 MILES EAST OF CINCINNATI, OHIO, A CORRIDOR FOR ILLEGAL NARCOTICS THROUGHOUT THE MIDWEST AND EASTERN HALF OF THE UNITED STATES. THE OHIO RIVER BORDERS ALL THE SOUTHERN PART OF CLERMONT COUNTY ALONG U.S. 52. ALONG WITH U.S. 52 CLERMONT COUNTY ALSO HAS INTERSTATE 275, WHICH TRAVELS THROUGH FOUR COUNTIES CONNECTING CINCINNATI AND DAYTON TO THE REGION ALLOWING EASY ACCESS TO ILLICIT DRUGS. NOT ONLY ARE INDIVIDUAL LIVES, FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES DISRUPTED BY ILLEGAL DRUG USE AND ITS ASSOCIATED CRIMES, BUT EVERY INDIVIDUAL WHICH ABUSES DRUGS IS FAR LESS LIKELY TO BE A PRODUCTIVE CITIZEN, AND IN TURN HELP REBUILD THE LOCAL ECONOMY AND THEIR COMMUNITIES. THE ILLEGAL MANUFACTURING, TRAFFICKING AND ABUSE OF ILLICIT NARCOTICS NEGATIVELY AFFECTS OUR COMMUNITIES WHEN LOCAL FUNDS FROM CLERMONT COUNTY ARE PUT INTO THE HANDS OF LOCAL DRUG DEALERS, THEN DRUG TRAFFICKING ORGANIZATIONS AND EVENTUALLY MAKING ITS WAY TO DRUG CARTELS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES INTO OTHER COUNTRIES, DIVERTING MONIES AND COMMERCE FROM THE AMERICAN ECONOMY WHILE ALLOWING FOREIGN COUNTRIES ECONOMIES TO BENEFIT. IT'S CRUCIAL THAT LAW ENFORCEMENT THWART THOSE DETERMINED TO ABUSE, TRAFFIC, DISTRIBUTE AND PROFIT FROM ILLEGAL DRUGS IN OUR COMMUNITIES. THIS WILL BE BEST ACCOMPLISHED BY PARTNERING WITH OTHER COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH EDUCATION, TREATMENT AND PREVENTION. IN DOING THIS, LAW ENFORCEMENT ALONG WITH ITS COLLABORATING PARTNERS WILL IMPEDE THE FLOW OF ILLEGAL DRUGS AND ACCOMPANIED CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, OFTEN VIOLENT OCCURRING THROUGHOUT OUR COMMUNITIES, STATES AND COUNTRY. THROUGH THIS PRUDENT HOLISTIC APPROACH, THE CLERMONT COUNTY NARCOTICS TASK FORCE WILL ASSERT ITS EFFORTS IN SEEKING THE ARREST AND CONVICTION OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS INVOLVED IN ILLEGAL DRUG ACTIVITY AND ITS ASSOCIATED CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. 		10/1/2021 9/30/2025 Sub $61,478.47

DART WAS IMPLEMENTED IN 1987 TO IMPACT THE RISING DISTRIBUTION OF ILLEGAL DRUGS THROUGHOUT SIX COMMUNITIES WITHIN HAMILTON COUNTY. THESE COMMUNITIES IDENTIFIED THE NEED TO ADDRESS DRUG ENFORCEMENT AT A REGIONAL LEVEL. IN THE PAST 35 YEARS, DART HAS GROWN TO SERVING 22 COMMUNITIES ENCOMPASSING 575 SQUARE MILES AND HAVING APPROXIMATELY 338,102 RESIDENTS. THE MINORITY POPULATION IN DART COMMUNITIES IS 31.7%. THE MISSION AND GOAL OF DART IS TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THE CITIZENS WITHIN THESE COMMUNITIES BY REDUCING THE AVAILABILITY OF ILLEGAL DRUGS AND WEAPONS. DART'S OBJECTIVES ARE TO IDENTIFY, INVESTIGATE, ARREST AND PROSECUTE NARCOTIC TRAFFICKERS, CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS, AND OFFENDERS AT ALL LEVELS. THIS WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY FORMALLY STRUCTURING AND JOINTLY COORDINATING MULTI-JURISDICTIONAL DRUG ENFORCEMENT AT ALL LEVELS. DART COORDINATES WITH LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT TO ADDRESS SPECIFIC DRUG COMPLAINTS THAT ARE QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUES AFFECTING CITIZENS IN THE COMMUNITY. DART WORKS WITH PATROL AND INVESTIGATORS FROM THESE AGENCIES TO SHARE INFORMATION AND INVESTIGATE NARCOTIC TRAFFICKERS AND ABUSERS WHO DIRECTLY IMPACT THEIR COMMUNITIES WITH DRUG ABUSE AND OTHER RELATED CRIMES. DART WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH AGENCIES SUCH AS DEA, FBI, U.S. POSTAL INSPECTORS, OHIO BCI, OHIO STATE HIGHWAY PATROL, BUTLER COUNTY SHERIFF'S BURN, WARREN COUNTY DRUG TASK FORCE, CLERMONT COUNTY DRUG TASKFORCE, CINCINNATI POLICE NARCOTICS UNIT, HAMILTON COUNTY HEROIN TASK FORCE, HAMILTON COUNTY PROBATION OFFICERS, AND OTHER AGENCIES AS NEEDED. STATE AND FEDERAL GRANT FUNDING PROVIDES SALARIES FOR SUPPORT STAFF; EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLIES USED BY AGENTS TO SAFELY AND SUCCESSFULLY CONDUCT INVESTIGATIONS; MAINTENANCE OF EQUIPMENT, VEHICLES; TRAINING FOR DART PERSONNEL; AND DRUG ANALYSIS FOR NARCOTICS ACQUIRED DURING INVESTIGATIONS. THE IMPACT OF DART INVESTIGATIONS SPREADS FAR BEYOND THE 22 AGENCIES THAT IT SERVES. DART HAS ASSISTED WITH DISMANTLING AND DISRUPTING SEVERAL ORGANIZATIONS THAT OPERATE IN A MANNER THAT DIRECTLY IMPACTS THE RESIDENTS WITHIN THE REGION, AND ACROSS THE NATION. NARCOTIC TRAFFICKERS AND ABUSERS DO NOT RECOGNIZE GEOGRAPHICAL BOUNDARIES. DART AGENTS OFTEN FIND THEIR INVESTIGATIONS CROSSING INTO OTHER PARTS OF THE REGION AND INTO OTHER STATES. MAINTAINING STRONG PARTNERSHIPS WITH THE OTHER LAW ENFORCEMENT ORGANIZATIONS IN THE REGION IS ESSENTIAL TO SUCCESSFULLY DISRUPTING AND PROSECUTING INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE FACILITATING THE FLOW OF NARCOTICS FROM THOSE AREAS. DART WILL CONTINUE WORKING CLOSELY ON BUILDING STRONGER PARTNERSHIPS. DART CURRENTLY CONSISTS OF A COMMANDER, 4 FULL-TIME AGENTS, AN AGENT FROM THE CINCINNATI OFFICE OF THE DEA AND AN ANALYST FROM OHIO NATIONAL GUARD. THE AGENTS WILL CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON ALL FORMS OF ILLEGAL NARCOTICS, WITH AN EMPHASIS ON OPIOID AND METHAMPHETAMINE-BASED INVESTIGATIONS. THIS WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY CONTINUING TO WORK WITH ALL LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL AGENCIES THAT DART HAS DEVELOPED PARTNERSHIPS WITH, AS WELL AS GATHERING INFORMATION FROM INFORMANTS, PATROL OFFICERS, AND INVESTIGATORS WITHIN DART COMMUNITIES. DART'S MISSION IS VITAL TO THE COMMUNITIES THAT IT SERVES. THE MAJORITY OF DART COMMUNITIES DO NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO CONDUCT NARCOTIC INVESTIGATIONS BEYOND THE EFFORTS OF THEIR ROAD PATROL. DART PROVIDES THESE COMMUNITIES WITH EXPERTISE IN NARCOTIC INVESTIGATIONS. NON-FUNDING OF DART WOULD ALLOW NARCOTICS TO PROLIFERATE AND WOULD DEGRADE THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN THESE COMMUNITIES. THE GROWTH OF DART FROM 6 COMMUNITIES IN 1987 TO 22 TODAY IS A TESTAMENT TO ITS NEED, EFFECTIVENESS AND SUCCESS. 		10/1/2021 9/30/2025 Sub $59,455.19
