Project Grant
Overview
Grant Description
The Strong Cities Network, with support from the National League of Cities (NLC) and a roster of subject-matter experts led by Hassan Naveed, the former director of New York City’s Office for the Prevention of Hate, proposes to implement strengthening sustainable community-based efforts to prevent and respond to hate.
The purpose is to work with community-based organizations (CBOs) and local governments in five cities across the US to enhance community-based prevention of, responses to and reporting of hate crimes and incidents.
Project activities include an inaugural capacity-building workshop for CBOs and city officials from the selected five cities; calls for proposals to provide subgrants to two CBOs in each of the five cities to deliver two-year programs to increase community-led reporting of hate crimes and hate incidents and hate prevention efforts more broadly in their cities; provide technical support for subgrant management and implementation as well as opportunities to participate in Strong Cities and NLC networking and peer-to-peer learning events throughout the project; and an in-person showcase for awarded CBOs to share achievements and lessons learned with fellow awardees, city officials and their beneficiaries.
Expected outcomes include increased capacity of CBOs to prevent and respond to hate, increased collaboration between CBOs and local governments on preventing and responding to hate, and increased community-wide awareness of what constitutes hate and how to report and address it.
