provide Gang Resistance Education and Training (GREAT) to several elementary schools and one
middle school in Little Haiti. Officers from the police Gang Unit will conduct GREAT instruction
with a goal of reaching 690 youth. Grant funding of $43,500.00 has been approved for this
program for the period beginning February 1, 2007 to January 31, 2008. The contract has been
prepared by Communities In Schools, who has been designated by the Children's Trust as the
