Weed and Seed Guidelines Issued

Letter of intent due: August 31, 2005

The 2005 Official Recognition Guidelines on how to become a Weed and Seed site are available. The Community Capacity Development Office 2005 Official Recognition Guidelines contain instructions and the application for Official Recognition (OR) of a Weed and Seed strategy. OR means that CCDO has approved your strategy. OR approval is given for five calendar years. With OR you are eligible to apply for funding from CCDO, based on availability of funds awarded on a competitive basis.
The Weed and Seed strategy aims to prevent, control, and reduce violent crime, drug abuse, and gang activity in designated high-crime neighborhoods across the country. It is a community-based, innovative, and comprehensive multi-agency approach to law enforcement, crime prevention, and neighborhood restoration. The strategy also recognizes the importance of involving community residents in identifying and solving problems in their neighborhood.

The CCDO provides national leadership, as well as, management and administration of the program. To learn more about CCDO, visit our Web site at: www.ojp.usdoj.gov/ccdo.
