States determine the sub-State services and activities to be funded.
These may include funding for shelters for victims of family violence, counseling and self-help services, and projects to address elder abuse. During fiscal year 1999, grants were made to States and Indian Tribes for immediate shelter and related assistance. Support continued for shelters in rural and underserved areas, special programs for children of victims of family violence, support for public awareness programs to break the cycle of violence, and demonstration of service models that address elder abuse. The same services will be provided in fiscal years 2000 and 2001. No regulations codified in 45 CFR 1300.
