Announcement
The Department of Education – Project Prevent Grant Program
About
Purpose of this Regulatory Action: Exposure of children and youth to community violence, whether as victims, justice-involved youth, or witnesses, is associated with long-term physical, psychological, and emotional harms. Community violence, which is defined in this document, is a significant public health, public safety, and community infrastructure concern nationwide, and is a leading cause of death, injury, and intergenerational trauma for people in the United States.
The purpose of the Project Prevent Grant Program is to provide grants to local educational agencies (LEAs) impacted by community violence and to expand the capacity of LEAs to implement community and school-based strategies to help prevent community violence and mitigate the impacts of exposure to community violence.
