that deliver services through networks of local affiliates, coalition 
members, and other established partners such as a network of affiliated 
community or faith-based organizations; and their local affiliates, 
coalition members, or other established partners that have the ability to 
provide services in four or more states.

FUNDING:  Estimated total program funding: $150 million; individual awards 
of $2 million to $8 million.
