  • County government discretionary funds
  • Governors' special council funds for child abuse prevention
  • Mental health funds
  • School enhancement dollars
  • Mayors' offices—municipal government
  • Banking institutions, including credit unions
  • Police departments and other crime prevention associations/organizations
  • Hospitals and medical clinics
  • Libraries
  • Neighborhood Watch groups
  • Parent-teacher organizations/associations
  • Faith-based institutions
  • Private foundations
  • Corporations or businesses at the local or corporate level
  • Service organizations
