Full Text of Announcement I. Funding Opportunity Description

Purpose of Program: The Project Prevent Grant Program provides grants to local educational agencies (LEAs) to increase their capacity to help schools in communities with pervasive violence to better address the needs of affected students and to break the cycle of violence.
Background

Children’s exposure to violence, whether as victims or witnesses, is often associated with long-term physical, psychological, and emotional harms. These harms, among others, include depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic disorders; failing or having difficulty in school; and delinquency or criminal behavior, including violent acts.

Several Federal agencies have worked to address the issues surrounding children’s exposure to violence. Since 1980, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been studying patterns of violence and the effects of violence on communities and individuals, and it has been advancing strategies to prevent violence and mitigate the impacts of exposure to violence. 1 Furthermore, in 2010, Attorney General Eric Holder launched the Defending Childhood initiative to better understand and address the problem of children’s exposure to violence. As part of this initiative, the Attorney General’s Task Force on Children Exposed to Violence released a report and national action plan in December 2012, which helped inform the development of the Project Prevent Grant Program. 2

In addition, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has launched a national effort to ‘‘reduce the pervasive, harmful, and costly health impact of violence and trauma by integrating trauma-informed approaches throughout health, behavioral health, and related systems and addressing the behavioral health needs of people involved in or at risk of involvement in the criminal and juvenile justice systems.’’ This includes the outlining of‘‘Principles and Guidance for a TraumaInformed Approach.’’ 3

On January 16, 2013, President Obama proposed ‘‘Now is the Time,’’ a comprehensive plan that proposed a series of actions and steps to protect our children and communities by reducing gun violence, including Project Prevent. The Project Prevent Grant Program also was included in the President’s FY 2014 budget request, and Congress provided funding for the new program in the Department of Education Appropriations Act, 2014.

Project Prevent grants will enable LEAs to increase their capacity to identify, assess, and serve students
