victimization by supporting projects uniquely designed to address and
prevent these crimes in rural jurisdictions. Grantees include States,
Indian tribes, local governments, and nonprofit, public or private

complete the sections of the form that pertain to its own specific
activities.

with the collection: The total annual hour burden to complete the data
collection forms is 330 hours, that is 165 grantees completing a form

hour.
