The DFC supports over 700 community coalitions across the United States and provides funding to identify and respond to local substance abuse problems. "The applicants in our district won these grants the old fashioned way: they earned them on their merits,” said Congressman McClintock. "I believe that their success underscores the fact that meritorious programs do not need Congressional earmarks – meritorious programs do quite well in an open and competitive environment. The fact that 4th District programs are so strongly represented in this program speaks volumes about the importance of merit-based evaluations as opposed to muscle-based earmarks,” McClintock said. I am delighted that so many from our district have succeeded.” New Grant Award The Vision Coalition of El Dorado Hills was awarded $125,000 to reduce substance abuse in El Dorado County. The group will implement marketing programs, direct community outreach and mentoring programs to reach at-risk young people.
