MAYOR VILLARAIGOSA ISSUES RFPS FOR THIRD ROUND OF GANG REDUCTION PROGRAMING
LOS ANGELES – Continuing his comprehensive approach to reduce gang violence in Los Angeles, Mayor Antonio Villaragoisa issued a third round of requests for proposals (RFP), which will cover gang prevention and intervention services in all 12 designated Gang Reduction and Youth Development (GRYD) zones.
Under the Mayor’s Gang Reduction Plan, a total of $5.1 million will be available for distribution through this RFP round of funding.
In addition these funds will support new prevention and intervention services where they are needed most – in the areas of highest gang crime. Gang related violence is four times higher in GRYD zones than compared to the rest of the city.
