Opportunity Information: Apply for MP YEP 17 001
The FY17 Minority Youth Violence Prevention II (MYVP II) grant opportunity aims to address and reduce youth violence among at-risk minority youth aged 12 to 18 through collaborative public health and community policing efforts. This program builds on the original MYVP initiative, which sought to integrate health and violence prevention strategies from 2014 to 2017.
MYVP II emphasizes innovative, interdisciplinary approaches that must involve partnerships between public health agencies, local schools or school districts, law enforcement, and institutions of higher learning. The goal is to tackle the disparities faced by racial and ethnic minority youth, who are disproportionately affected by violence, justice system involvement, and health issues.
Statistics underscore the urgency of this initiative: youth homicide rates are significantly higher for non-Hispanic black youth compared to their counterparts, and the impact of violence extends beyond individual victims, affecting families and whole communities. Disadvantaged areas often experience greater rates of violence and barriers to public health services.
The program leverages community policing strategies and acknowledges the importance of addressing implicit biases in law enforcement. It also focuses on identifying both risk factors for youth violence—such as exposure to drugs, gangs, and poor academic performance—and protective factors that can mitigate these risks, like strong family connections and positive social interactions.
Through funding support until August 31, 2017, MYVP II seeks comprehensive methods to improve the health and safety of vulnerable youth populations, ultimately aiming to break cycles of violence and poverty in affected communities.Apply for MP YEP 17 001
