Applications Available for Co/Motion Youth Gun Violence Prevention Initative Challenge Grants

The purpose of the Alliance for Justice's Co/Motion Youth Gun Violence Prevention Initiative Challenge Grants program is to support youth-designed and -led campaigns to end gun violence. Through a competitive process, matching grants of up to $10,000 will be awarded to qualifying organizations and agencies for youth-driven initiatives. The Alliance for Justice is particularly interested in proposals from organizations that have demonstrated leadership, vision, and commitment to youth and youth-led initiatives.

Challenge grants are only available to youth groups that work in partnership with the Co/Motion program to design and carry out a 12-month, youth-led gun violence prevention campaign that includes on-site training, ongoing technical assistance, and program evaluation. In order to receive funds, youth groups must be affiliated with a nonprofit, 501©(3) organization or government agency through which funds can be dispersed.
