THE ACGA RESEARCH COMMITTEE EXISTS TO AID THIS KIND OF QUERY

**a*@aol.com**

 Dear ACGA, the Research Committee and Amanda, 

Vinnie Bevine looks like he has the opportunity to change lives in a community by community gardening and needs help, asap to get it done.  We should have the research - can we get it to him via e-mail attachment so he can have the matter at hand as he's writing the proposal - 

in real time, in about a week?

Thanking you in advance for your cooperation, 

Adam Honigman
Grantwriting ACGA rank-and-file member.

Subject: [cg] Community gardening and gang / prevention

Dear community gardeners:

I wanted to know if anyone out there could share some information  
regarding community gardens and gang or violence prevention.  I am  
writing a proposal for a grant for the funding of a community garden,  
and it is asking me to specifically describe how the project will  
contribute to a safe and gang-free community.  Does anyone have any  
research or anything concrete that I could use that shows that  
community gardens reduce community violence?  Thanks a whole lot!
