Shuster Announces $300,000 for Community Policing in Altoona

Earlier today, Congressman Shuster joined members of Operation Our Town to announce $300,000 in federal funding Shuster secured for the group’s efforts to reduce drug crime and revitalize sections of Altoona.


Shuster secured the $300,000 in the FY2010 appropriations process. The funding was finalized by the passage and enactment of the Omnibus Appropriations Act. The $300,000 will be used by Operation Our Town to facilitate partnerships between community and business leaders to fight drug use and crime through proven law enforcement, treatment, and prevention strategies.
