VIOLENCE PREVENTION

Urges faith-based organizations and community based organizations to collaborate and build a multidisciplinary alliance that promotes community resilience and public safety through the development of programs and strategies aimed to prevent violence and violent extremism in impoverished, underserved, and at-risk communities by providing media outreach and educational campaigns, after-school programs, mentoring programs, and other activities that replace negative messages, activities, beliefs, and attitudes with positive productive activities, beliefs, and messages, through a transparent and collaborative process with the community that takes full advantage of any available State and federal funding resources.
