The proposed bill establishes the Community Violence Intervention and Prevention Grant Program, aimed at addressing and preventing community violence through coordinated efforts. It creates the Community Violence Intervention and Prevention Fund, which will be administered by the Office of Community Violence Intervention and Prevention Services. The bill defines "community violence" and outlines eligibility criteria for local governments to receive grants, specifically targeting areas with high homicide rates. The program will award grants to community-based nonprofit organizations and eligible local governments, with a stipulation that at least 75% of the funds received by local governments must be allocated to community-based organizations focused on violence prevention.

Additionally, the bill mandates that grant applications include detailed plans for implementing violence intervention initiatives, promoting coordination among agencies, and demonstrating community support. Recipients of the grants are required to submit annual reports on their activities and outcomes. The Department of Health and Human Services is tasked with promulgating rules to implement the act, which will not take effect until related legislation is enacted.
