AI Summary

This bill, the Drug-Free Communities Pandemic Relief Act, would give the Administrator of the Drug-Free Communities Support Program the authority to waive the federal fund limitation for the program. This means the Administrator could provide grants or renewal grants to eligible coalitions that were unable to raise the required non-federal funds, including in-kind contributions, due to the COVID-19 public health emergency. The bill sets limits on how much the grants can exceed the normal non-federal fund requirements, ranging from 100% to 150% depending on the type of grant. The goal is to provide relief to these coalitions that were impacted by the pandemic and unable to meet their usual fundraising requirements.
