The RCMP are accepting applications to their Family Violence Initiative Fund. The objective of this fund is to help communities respond to relationship and family violence and victim issues. Non-profit organizations and municipal, provincial and territorial partners who have a related mandate can apply by March 11th. The fund supports initiatives that promote awareness of relationship violence, assist survivors and support crime prevention. It is an opportunity for community organizations to get funding for their projects, collaborate with their local RCMP detachment and contribute to making our communities safer. As an example the fund has supported projects such as classroom programs for teens about personal and social skills and in the development of awareness materials about local support services.
To request an application form, send an email to RCMP.FVIF-IFMVF.GRC@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.
