Dear Mr. Welch:

The Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council, an official agency of
the City of Atlanta, is interested in full participation with the State
in the Safe Streets and Crime Act and the Juvenile Delinquency Prevention
and Control Act of 1968,

To follow-up on previous conversations with you, I am writing you requesting

that we be included in all appropriate briefings, planning and instructional
meetings and. conferences related to these Acts, .

While our major and priuary emphasis and relationship will be with the

J. D. Act, we do intend to propose some programs and projects related to the
Safe Streets and Crime Program, especially in the areas of research and
demonstration,

In both of these areas, we will, of course, be working in close relationship
with Mr. Dan Sweat, Governmental Liaison Director for the City of Atlanta.

We will be preparing for submission at this time, proposals under several
sections of the Juvenile Delinquency Prevention and Control Act of 1968
and the Safe Streets and Crime Act,

I am fully aware of the fact that guidelines and proceudres for neither of
these Acts have been developed.

Our contact person on this matter should be our Executive Director,
Mr. John W. Cox, City Hall, 522-4463, extension 437.
