The Georgia Governor’s Office of Highway Safety (GOHS)
recently announced it has been granted federal funds from
the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to promote
the development and implementation of innovative highway
safety programs. These FY2021 funds will be available for
local grants in program areas such as alcohol/impaired driving,
pedestrian/bicycle safety, motorcycle safety, youth and young
adult driving safety, occupant protection and beyond. We are
excited to welcome new grantee applicants from other state
agencies, community organizations, high schools, colleges
and more.
Programs and their problem identification must be supported
by data and proposed solutions, examples of which can be
found by clicking the “Countermeasures” link at:
https://www.gahighwaysafety.org/grants/application-process/.
There will be 2 opportunities to attend a mandatory application
training session for new applicants. One will be on January 7th
at Central Georgia Technical College in Warner Robins and the
other on January 9 at Chattahoochee Technical College’s North
Metro campus in Acworth.
