Uses and Use Restrictions
To receive funds, States must meet eligibility requirements stated in the authorizing legislation and use of funds to develop, operate, expand, and enhance community-based, prevention focused programs and activities designed to strengthen and support families to prevent child abuse and neglect.
One percent is set aside for discretionary grants to migrant and tribal populations and an additional amount to fund a national resource center to provide training and technical assistance to State lead agencies.
