Sonoma County Family Justice Center Kicks Off Strategic Planning
Thursday, July 2nd, 2009
Last June 18, over 70 representatives of government, community-based, and law enforcement organizations gathered to initiate planning for the Sonoma County Family Justice Center. The strategic planning kickoff built on an extensive feasibility study which was conducted by the Glen Price Group. The feasibility study pointed to significant potential victim and law enforcement outcomes that could be realized through this one-stop approach to service delivery.
Stakeholders have also been able to generate over $800,000 in investments for the new family justice center, including a $300,000 grant commitment from The California Endowment.
The Glen Price Group is providing support for the strategic planning and fund development work for the planned Family Justice Center.

This grant represents part of approximately $114 million in funding to 183 community groups to provide education and training to young people across the United States. The awards include approximately $47 million allocated to the YouthBuild program under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.

Program participants, ages 16- 24, help construct and rehabilitate affordable housing in their own neighborhoods. Youth participating in Richmond’s YouthBuild program split their time between the construction site and the classroom, where they earn their GED or high school diploma and prepare for college and other postsecondary training opportunities. YouthBuild includes significant support systems, such as mentoring, follow-up education, employment, and personal counseling services; and participation in community service and civic engagement. The Glen Price Group was proud to be a part of the proposal development effort that resulted in this grant support.

The San Leandro Unified School District has learned that the City’s two high schools, San Leandro High and Lincoln High, will receive a total of $2.3 million in funding over a period of five years from the California Department of Education to develop innovative after school programming for their students.

The result has been over $67 million dollars in funding for after school programs serving students and families in priority communities throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
