The Police Department has previously provided a total of $191,000 for the Tarrant County Juvenile Fingerprinting program from Local Law Enforcement Block Grant and Awarded Assets funds. Funding from these sources was not allocated for this program during FY 1998-99 As a result, a total of $40,000 has been allocated for this purpose from the Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant. The Fort Worth Police Department has previously applied for state grant funds to initiate a juvenile first offender program but to date has not been successful in securing these scarce funds. The Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant will be able to provide sufficient funds for a pilot program in the amount of $145,901 The Department will hire a Human Services Coordinator to oversee the project and serve as a liaison with a private entity that will handle the counseling and treatment portions of the project. The private group will be located through. a request .for proposals and an ensuing contract. If this program is successful, the Police Department will explore expanding it to other police departments throughout'the county in the future.
