The Praxis Project:
Thanks to the voter approval of Prop 47 back in 2014, California is now poised to grant an estimated $103.7 million in funding for community programs that support folks reentering from the justice system.
Under Prop 47, public agencies - defined as county, city, or Tribal government departments – must be the lead applicants, but they are required to share a minimum of 50 percent of awarded funding with community nonprofit partners. Public agencies eligible to apply include: public health departments, school districts, Tribal reservations or Rancherias, housing authorities, etc. Services that can be supported through Prop 47 funds include mental health programming, drug treatment, rehabilitation, and so much more.
Contact your local authorities to see if they are applying for Prop 47 funds and see if your organization is eligible for participating in helping to support folks to have a successful reentry.
The Praxis Project is a national movement support intermediary committed to building capacity for social change. Our emphasis is on developing fields of work in ways that encourage multilevel, trans-disciplinary learning and collaboration across issues, across the country, and across the globe.
