Case studies about award-winning partnerships will be disseminated throughout the community development and law enforcement industries.

Neighborhood Revitalization Awards (six grants of $15,000 to $25,000 each) celebrate exemplary collaboration between community groups and police that result in crime reduction as well as economic development activity, including real estate development, business attraction, and job growth.
