The Trump administration has released solicitations for a grant program meant to stop gun violence in underserved communities.

The Community Based Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative (CVIPI), was created in 2022, to support groups working in rural and urban communities struggling to address violence and fund research studying the programs’ efficacy.
