Community Healing and Restoration includes teams embedded in Oakland neighborhoods that are exposed to high rates of violence to provide connection to the DVP Network and community events and activities, such as Town Nights, to activate parks and neighborhood spaces. This strategy area also aims to lift-up the wisdom of people closest to violence and deepen their skills to promote healing through community-led outreach activities and events. A mini-grant program to support innovative community-based violence reduction projects will be overseen by one provider who will also deliver training and capacity building for community leaders.
