(September 28, 2023) \u2013 Today, Congressman Morgan McGarvey (KY-03) announced YouthBuild Louisville has received a $1 million grant from the Department of Justice (DOJ) to enhance schools\u2019 capacity to address youth violence. The grant will allow YouthBuild Louisville to expand its services to Smoketown youth by developing a school safety plan with Meyzeek Middle School, training Smoketown residents in de-escalation and positive youth development, and recruiting community members to serve on the Smoketown Anti-Violence Coalition.\n\n\u201cYouthBuild Louisville is doing incredible work to keep our community safe, and this $1 million grant will increase their ability to stop youth violence,\u201d said Rep. McGarvey. \u201cThis will allow YouthBuild Louisville to expand their services to young people in Smoketown and empower them with positive development programs, setting them up for success later in life. This federal funding will support our youth and continue efforts to keep our communities safe.\u201d\n\n\u201cWe are thrilled to be supported by OJJDP to work with partners, parents, young people and Meyzeek Middle School to boost attendance, academic performance and regulate behavioral responses to stress,\u201d said Lynn Rippy, President and CEO of YouthBuild Louisville. \u201cOur work aims to reduce young people\u2019s exposure to violence, build coping and resiliency skills.
