Open Philanthropy recommended two grants totaling $350,000 to the Community Based Public Safety (CBPS) Collective, via the Newark Community Street Team, for general support. The CBPS Collective is a new national network supporting local community-based violence interruption programs. Its launch came out of the Newark Community Street Team’s scan of existing projects deploying community-based public safety strategies, which we supported in September 2020.

This falls within our focus area of criminal justice reform.

The grant amount was updated in November 2021.
