Can an agency receive OFCY & Measure Y funding at the same time?

Question:  Can an agency receive OFCY & Measure Y funding at the same time?

 

Answer: 

 

Yes.  However, the funds have different areas of focus and target populations and therefore overlap in services will be minimal.  VPPSA focuses on violence reduction.  VPPSA serves very specific target populations of young people with risk factors that put them at greater risk of involvement in violence.  Think carefully about which fund really most reflects your program services and target population.
