Partner Participation. Specify the extent of each partner's participation in developing the application. When the 2016 Improving Criminal Justice Responses to Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, and Stalking Grant Program (OVW- 2016 -9206) grant opportunity was released, Human Options' leadership team identified an opportunity to deepen and strengthen the services being provided to the City of Santa Ana. Additionally, through recent planning meetings with the Santa Ana Police Department and in reviewing the City of Santa Ana's 2014 -2015 to 2018 Strategic Plan, we discovered two areas which could meet the requirements of this grant application and the City's strategic goal. It is anticipated that with the funds provided by this grant, and in conjunction with our collaborative partner, Human Options will be able to strengthen and expand services and create meaningful change in the Santa Ana communities. As the lead agency, Human Options set tip the initial meeting to review the Request for Proposal (RFP) and collaborated with the City of Santa Ana, Santa Ana Police Department to identify the two purpose areas ( #5 and 416), goals, and objectives set forth in the application. Additionally, Human Options and the City of Santa reviewed the funding levels identified in the RFP and agreed on a set amount for each respective agency /unit of local government to obtain based on services being provided.
