These funds are used by the Sheriff' s Office to fund the Multi-Agency Narcotics Unit (MAN) and the Substance Abuse Awareness Program ( SAAP) . The Sheriff' s Office is asking for our support and assistance in securing the grant funds for the continuation of their Comprehensive Substance Abuse Program. As part of the application process, letters of support from at least fifty-one percent ( 51%) of the local units of government representing at least fifty-one percent ( 51%) of the population must accompany the submission of application.
