Cooperative Agreements With National Organizations To Support the Buckle Up America Campaign

Resumo

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announces a discretionary cooperative agreement program to solicit highly visible support for mobilizing America to buckle up children during special emphasis periods of the Buckle Up America Campaign. The Campaign is a nationwide call to action in response to the Presidential Initiative to Increase Seat Belt Use Nationwide. High priority is given to education and enforcement efforts to buckle up children. NHTSA seeks the participation and support of national organizations and their state and local affiliates to take a leadership role in the Campaign by speaking out in support of the Campaign initiatives, and mobilizing community level activity. This notice solicits applications from for-profit or not-for-profit national organizations. In addition, NHTSA is particularly interested in gaining the interest and involvement of organizations that represent constituencies who are hard to reach through mainstream delivery channels and/or have low seat belt use rates. Only applications submitted by the national office representing the organization will be considered.
