The Communities Empowering Youth (CEY) program
builds the capacity of faith-based and community organizations
to address issues of gang involvement, youth violence, and child
abuse and neglect. The CEY program strengthens broad-based community
collaborations to address these issues and provide opportunities
for positive youth development. Funded CEY projects consist of
a lead organization and partnering faith-based and community organizations
with a history of collaboration. Together, they serve youth within
a specific community by building organizational capacity. In 2007,
CCF funded 31 Communities Empowering Youth Program grantees nationwide.
Below is a list of current grantees.

Communities Empowering Youth program, visit About
