County Of Lancaster

County Of Lancaster, operating through its County Treasurers Office, is a U.S. local government entity registered in SAM.gov since September 2007 to receive federal awards. As a county-level government body located in Virginia, it serves as both a direct recipient and pass-through entity for federal grants that support community development, public safety, and social services initiatives. The entity functions as a steward of federal funding designed to enhance quality of life, economic development, and victim support services within Lancaster County and the surrounding Northern Neck region.

County Of Lancaster has demonstrated substantial activity as both a prime grantee and sub-grant recipient across multiple federal programs. In its role as prime grantee, the entity received a $100,000 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service under the Chesapeake Bay Gateways Network program (CFDA 15.930) to support the Triway Trail Phase II project, a nearly 10-mile biking and walking trail development initiative linking three coastal communities and designed to promote outdoor recreation, tourism, and economic growth in the Northern Neck National Heritage Area. As a sub-grant recipient, County Of Lancaster has received allocations from the Virginia Department of Social Services for local budget purposes across multiple fiscal years (July 2023 through October 2024), and has served as the implementing entity for federal funds passed through the Department of Criminal Justice Services Virginia. These sub-grants have supported the Lancaster County Victim Witness Program, providing comprehensive advocacy, emotional support, and justice system assistance to crime victims and witnesses; the V-STOP grant supporting 24/7 trained 911 communications officers to respond to violence against women; and the Healthy Youth and Family Engagement Initiative in partnership with the Boys & Girls Club of the Northern Neck, delivering evidence-based behavioral health and educational programming to at-risk youth in grades 1-12. These collective efforts reflect County Of Lancaster's role in administering federal resources that address public safety, victim services, youth development, and community infrastructure enhancement.
