In December 2004, the Jefferson County Commission established the Jefferson County Community Arts Fund (JCCAF) to be administered by the Cultural Alliance using a process that incorporated national best practices in distributing public funds to arts and cultural organizations.
Over three years, 227 funding awards totaling $14,279,185 were made to 75 Jefferson County-based organizations that integrated arts and cultural activities into the lives of all County residents.
All JCCAF funds have been awarded. The FY08 budget approved by the Jefferson County Commission did not include any funds for JCCAF.
