The Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency (PCCD) is offering its 2024 National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) Compliance Efforts grant, a crucial initiative to enhance crime statistics reporting across the state. This program aligns with the PCCD's mission to improve public safety and criminal justice by fostering accurate and timely data collection. The grant, supported by federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds, aims to modernize technology infrastructure for reporting incident-based crime data to the FBI’s NIBRS. This move will significantly improve the quality and detail of crime data, providing a more comprehensive understanding of criminal activity and informing more effective law enforcement strategies. The primary beneficiaries of this grant are local law enforcement agencies, campus police, university police, railroad or street railway police departments, airport authority police departments (including Harrisburg International Airport Police), and county park police within Pennsylvania. The goal is to equip these agencies with the necessary tools and training to transition to NIBRS-compliant reporting. The impact goal is to achieve widespread NIBRS compliance, thereby improving the accuracy and completeness of crime statistics reported to the FBI, which will ultimately support better resource allocation and crime prevention efforts across the state. The grant program's priorities and focus are clearly defined: upgrading technology infrastructure, specifically the installation of NIBRS-compliant record management systems, providing agency training on data collection and submission, and offering technical assistance to personnel responsible for these tasks. PCCD expects to fund approximately 50 grants, with budgets not exceeding $200,000 over a two-year project period. This focused approach ensures that the funds are directly applied to the critical components of NIBRS implementation. Expected outcomes include a significant increase in the number of Pennsylvania law enforcement agencies capable of submitting NIBRS data to the FBI. Measurable results will include the successful deployment of NIBRS-compliant systems, the number of personnel trained, and ultimately, an improvement in the quality and timeliness of crime data submitted. The long-term strategic priority of PCCD is to build a robust and data-driven criminal justice system in Pennsylvania, and this grant program is a direct step towards achieving that by ensuring accurate and comprehensive crime reporting. The theory of change is that by providing financial and technical support for NIBRS implementation, agencies will be empowered to improve their data reporting, leading to better informed policy decisions and enhanced public safety outcomes.

Intermountain Health is offering Social Determinants of Health Grants to programs and services that align with their priorities of improving nutrition security and stable, quality housing through wraparound and support services. This grant program is aligned with Intermountain's mission to address critical social determinants of health, recognizing that these factors profoundly impact community well-being. The grants aim to support initiatives that create healthier communities by tackling the root causes of health disparities. The target beneficiaries for these grants are low-income, vulnerable populations, served by social service agencies and healthcare agencies. The impact goals are to improve nutrition security and secure stable and quality housing. Projects are expected to demonstrate a collaborative approach between health and social service agencies, or provide strong health outcomes if an agency applies independently. The grants aim to foster partnerships that lead to comprehensive and sustainable improvements in the lives of these populations. The program's priorities and focuses are explicitly on improving nutrition security and enhancing stable and quality housing through integrated support services. Grant applicants must demonstrate how their program or service directly addresses at least one of these two Intermountain social determinants of health priorities. The theory of change suggests that by directly investing in programs addressing these fundamental needs, Intermountain Health can create a measurable positive impact on community health outcomes. Expected outcomes include improved access to nutritious food and increased access to and retention of stable and quality housing for vulnerable populations. Measurable results will be based on the impact these programs have on the identified social determinants of health, with an emphasis on clearly defined goals and outcomes. For example, successful programs might demonstrate a reduction in food insecurity rates or an increase in the number of individuals securing and maintaining stable housing within the target communities.

Expected outcomes and measurable results include the successful formation and development of creative businesses, increased economic opportunity for creative entrepreneurs, and a reduction in disparities by supporting BIPOC and low-income community-based entrepreneurs. The program aims to foster innovation and strengthen community identity through the growth of creative ventures across Pennsylvania. Applicants must be at least 18 years old, a Pennsylvania resident for at least twelve months, and operate or intend to form an eligible creative business. They can apply once every three years, and non-profit organizations are not eligible.

The South Salt Lake Neighborhood Block Party Grant program is designed to foster community engagement and strengthen neighborly bonds within the city. Recognizing that strong neighborhoods are built upon positive relationships, this initiative directly aligns with a foundational mission of promoting community well-being and resident interaction. By offering financial assistance and support for event planning, South Salt Lake aims to empower its residents to create vibrant and connected communities, thereby enhancing the overall quality of life in the city. The primary beneficiaries of this grant program are the residents of South Salt Lake, specifically those who host and participate in block parties. The program targets individuals and families within neighborhoods, encouraging them to come together for shared experiences. The impact goals are centered on building stronger community ties, fostering a sense of belonging, and increasing opportunities for family-friendly activities. This includes creating environments where neighbors can interact, build relationships, and collectively enhance their immediate living spaces. The program prioritizes events that bring residents together, offering financial help for eligible expenses such as food, paper goods, door prizes, and entertainment/performers. A key focus is on events that are open to all residents in the neighborhood and take place on the host's block within city boundaries. This ensures that the grant effectively supports broad community participation and localized engagement, emphasizing inclusivity and accessibility for all neighbors. The expected outcomes of the Neighborhood Block Party Grant program include an increase in neighborly interactions, a stronger sense of community identity, and a greater number of family-fun activities occurring in various blocks across South Salt Lake. Measurable results will include the successful execution of up to five block parties during the 2024 season, with each event potentially impacting numerous residents through social engagement and shared experiences.
