Peaceful Pathways: Reducing Exposure to Violence
An eligible nominating funder who will propose a funding partnership with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) to support a proposed project of a local nonprofit organization; and a nonprofit applicant organization classified as tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Peaceful Pathways program will fund projects that work to reduce violence in the context of a specific, vulnerable community such as a group that is under-resourced because of race, ethnicity, tribe, gender, sexual identity, rural/frontier location or other distinct characteristic. Projects must be new, community-based and culturally appropriate, reflecting how language skills, significant cultural differences, education, income and discrimination affect health-related outcomes.
