In Plain English

The Office of Neighborhood Safety received funding from Chevron Community Engagement Foundation to help people in crisis. The money pays for groceries, emergency housing, transportation cards, clothing, hygiene items, and official documents for Richmond residents. If approved, the grant supports the city's new Community Crisis Response Program, which sends mobile responders with local connections to help residents in non-stigmatizing ways.
