Comrades,
I received this message from the NYC community gardener's listserve this
morning. As some on this listserve use community gardens as places to run
anti-violence projects, these grants may prove useful.
Best wishes,
Adam Honigman

Sorry, here is the info on the grant I was refering to.
National Campaign Against Youth Violence Accepting
Proposals for City-By-City Program
Deadline: April 13, 2001
The National Campaign Against Youth Violence has issued
an RFP for its city-by-city initiative. The program aims
to strengthen promising locally driven violence prevention
collaboratives by increasing awareness of the fact that
violence is preventable and by creating activities that
stimulate private sector investment in prevention efforts;
increase youth involvement and leadership; and improve
media exposure and coverage of local activities. Through
a campaign that includes trainings, organized events, and
media activities, NCAYV and its local partners will work
to create model strategies that assist communities nation-
wide in mobilizing people to take action.
NCAYV will provide resources to selected communities to
ensure that they are better equipped to support youth and
reduce violence. In these communities, NCAYV will provide
technical assistance to help businesses, community leaders,
youth, and media professionals build partnerships that
sustain campaign efforts. In addition to in-kind services,
the program will provide $25,000 to partially cover the
costs of implementing and staffing the local campaign as
well as national staff support and other administrative
resources.
Applications may be submitted by the designated leader of
a community-based, government-based, or law enforcement-
based partnership, coalition, or collaborative. Applications
from collaboratives in the same county will be considered,
but only one application per county will be selected. To be
eligible, a collaborative must have been in existence for at
least eighteen months and employ at least one full-time
staff person.
For complete eligibility requirements and application
guidelines, visit the NCAYU Web site.
