KSP Grants Are Available
KENTUCKY...
Proposals for programs to fight underage drinking in Kentucky can be submitted through Jan. 18 to the Kentucky State Police to be considered for part of more than $300,000 in grant funds being offered.
State Police Commissioner Rodney Brewer says enforcement is an important part of the battle but that there also needs to be an educational approach to make people aware of the dangers of young people drinking alcohol.
Previous funding has gone for retail enforcement and education, campus enforcement projects, youth-led multimedia projects, community coalitions and student alcohol education programs.
Applications are available on the state police website at http://www.kentuckystatepolice.org/hsp/eudl.htm.
