To the Honorable Board:

I respectfully request your acceptance of a Grant from the CHNA 17 in the amount of $5000.00. These funds will be used to hire a consultant to develop and market project toolkits that will be shared with community partners and stakeholders.  Toolkits will be developed to address prevention initiatives focused on reducing use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs among Somerville youth. 

In accordance with M.G.L., Chapter 44, Section 53A, which requires a vote of the Board of Alderman for the expenditure of grants, or gifts from the federal government and from charitable foundation, private corporation, or an individual, or from the Commonwealth, a County or Municipality or agency thereof, I request that you accept this grant for final approval.

Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Respectfully Submitted,

Joseph A. Curtatone
Mayor
