PLAY ·2025 Grants ChallengeCultivating Restorative Schools for Safe Communities
Para Los Niños (PLN) is creating a school-based belonging and inclusion policy and multi-tiered system of support for bullying prevention and intervention. Integrating restorative justice and school social work, PLN will use grant funds to care not only for students who experience bullying but also for those who instigate it, engaging families, teachers, and staff in identity-affirming school culture. PLN's trauma-informed approach will foster safer school communities and hone a restorative model that can be replicated across L.A.
LIVE ·2024 Grants ChallengePartners and promoters address food injustice
We believe the solutions to complex social issues originate from those most affected. Best Start Region 1 (BSR1) addresses the social determinants of health in East LA, Metro LA, South El Monte/El Monte, and Southeast LA by revitalizing our Food Distribution Hub (Hub). Our efforts empower residents to transform systems to achieve physical, psychological, intellectual, and emotional safety and security. Supported by our community promoters, we bridge the gap between marginalized communities and basic essentials to uplift all members of society.
