DISCUSSION: Last year, the Criminal Justice Division (CJD) informed us that this year we would not need to submit a formal application for the two grants listed below because of the 3-year application policy instituted by the CJD. Under this plan, grantees selected by their regional criminal justice advisory committee to receive a 3-year commitment are automatically recommended for continued funding subject to performance, compliance with CJD rules, and availability of funds. The two grants listed below were selected by the North Central Texas Council of Governments to receive funding consideration under the 3-year commitment policy. Domestic Assault Response Team (DART)/3 The Domestic Assault Response Team (DART) program will continue to operate teams consisting of a family violence detective and a trained crisis intervention volunteer in the East and North Field Operations Divisions, and when necessary, in the South and West Field Operations Divisions. DART activities include crisis intervention, information and referral, and facilitation of emergency shelter admissions when indicated. Victim's services will be provided through the human services administrator, administrative secretary, the victim's services specialist and DART volunteers. In 1999, the DART program served 317 primary victims and 385 secondary victims. Of those served, 242 were male and 460 were female. The ages of the victims ranged from 0 to 60-plus.
