In partnership with LISC, the MetLife Foundation recently opened applications for their 2010 Community-Police Partnership Awards. The awards for Neighborhood Revitalization will honor community-police partnerships that yield both crime reduction and economic development outcomes as described below:
Two first place monetary awards of $25,000 each and four runner up awards of $15,000 will recognize exemplary collaboration between community groups and police that yields crime reduction as well as economic development outcomes, such as real estate development, business attraction and job growth. Winners of the Neighborhood Revitalization Awards agree to hold a local event in summer or fall 2010 to announce their award.
Awards will also be granted in the Special Strategy category.
Applications must be received by February 26, 2010.
For more information, see the attached application.
