Explanation

BACKGROUND: The Columbus State Community College is the primary grantee of a federal grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for the Family and Community Violence Prevention grant program. The Columbus Health Department will partner with the Columbus State Community College as a sub-grantee to provide drug, alcohol, and violence prevention as well as wellness education. This ordinance is needed to accept and appropriate $99,719 to fund the Family and Community Violence Prevention grant program, for the period September 1, 2009 through August 31, 2010.

The primary objective of the Family and Community Violence Prevention grant program is to provide violence, alcohol, and drug prevention as well as wellness education to youth ages 10 through 13. The emphasis will be on health and wellness to Somali Bantu youth residing in the Wedgewood Apartment Complex.

This ordinance is submitted as an emergency so as to allow the financial transaction to be posted in the City's accounting system as soon as possible. Up to date financial posting promotes accurate accounting and financial management.
