How would a consortium of LEAs apply for an SS/HS grant?
To apply as a consortium, all LEAs in the consortium must meet all of the eligibility requirements. The consortium of LEAs then must assign one LEA as the lead and applicant for the grant. As the applicant, the lead LEA completes all the required forms and submits the application on behalf of the consortium. Authorized representatives of all LEAs participating in the consortium must sign the required preliminary memorandum of agreement (MOA) and applicable program-specific assurances. Authorized representatives of local law enforcement agencies, local juvenile justice agencies, and local public mental health authorities that correspond to each of the participating LEAs in the consortium must also sign the required preliminary MOA.
