Renew $1.6 million in youth program grants for 20 organizations
In Plain English
Richmond voters approved the Kids First Initiative in 2018, requiring the city to set aside General Fund money for youth programs. The city previously awarded $1.6 million in grants to 20 nonprofits and public agencies for programs like mental health services, after-school activities, and violence prevention. If approved, these same organizations receive renewed funding for another year, with an option for one more year after that.
