The City of Fayetteville’s Office of Community Safety (OCS) is seeking to partner with community-based organizations to lead trauma-informed, community-led events to support youth, young adults and families, prioritizing communities identified for violence prevention, resource connection and strengthening community trust.
Qualified organizations are encouraged to apply to the Safe Spaces Activation request for proposal (RFP).
Safe Space Activations are intended to activate public and community spaces to support community engagement, resource coordination and community violence intervention strategies.
The total funding available under this RFP is $100,000. The City will award up to four contracts, each for $25,000.
Proposals are due by Friday, March 12 at 2 p.m.
"Our goal is to partner with local organizations to build a network of support so we can provide safe events for all young residents and families,” said OCS Director John Jones in a press release.
