The grant program will align with each councilmember’s priorities for their district and CICF’s mission of equity. Grantmaking will prioritize neighborhood-based, resident-driven, grassroots, and nontraditional organizations that serve under-appreciated neighborhoods and/or communities of color with accessible programs that empower neighborhoods to build a safer community.
Focus on efforts including but not limited to:
providing supportive services to youth and adults who face unique challenges and may have a higher likelihood of neighborhood segregation without proper intervention services (such as employment, education, mentoring, recreation, and family support services)
designing programs to reduce or prevent crime in a specific geographical area as defined by a neighborhood (place-based approach)
supporting youth and adults currently interacting with the criminal legal system to reduce recidivism
