grant. tell us a little bit about the and dad.g john: grant had the misfortune, of havingu could say, a father who was completely in that herom him believed that even from the earliest time, that somehow he should be one of the most the country.ple in and the result was that, over father, jesse, would do and say things to try to build up the son, even though he completehe son was a losers, ulysses s. grant was an absolute losers. but what happens is, the is, is thatthing grant's father is a writer. interested in politics. he's interested in all sorts of things and he's a very outgoing of an individual. whereas grant takes after his mother. his mother's very quiet. we know very little about her because grant doesn't say much about her. my favorite stories about them is that when grant fathera letter to his and basically says, leave me war., let me fight this you keep sending me people to latere, to give jobs to, as president to be made post masters, just stop it, i'm not put up with it any lo

our grant programs -- since 1995, we have awarded $7.6 billion in grants and cooperative agreements. and in 2017, the office of violence against women made 751 awards equaling approximately $450 million. our grant programs fund projects that support victims and/or hold perpetrators accountable. we support projects that deal with courts, law enforcement, prosecution, probation, as well as organizations that provide victim services. so when we look at this collaboration issue and bringing everyone to the table, office of violence against women, hopefully can help with that. there is a considerable intersection between our four crimes and human trafficking quite obviously. one of our grantees recently reported that of the 15 human trafficking victims that their program dealt with, they served within six months, so it was 15 within six months, 11 trafficked by an intimate partner. we can really see a cross section here with our four crimes. the office on violence against women has made trafficking a priority in 2018 in line with the attorney general's commitment to the successful prosecu
