What is the Community Policing Innovation Initiative? w/ Barbara McQuade
But how does the rubber meet the proverbial road? How do we actually make this happen?
Earlier this year, the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan, Hudson-Webber Foundation, Ballmer Group and Oakland County supported the establishment of the Community Policing Innovation Initiative.
The funds support programs with the:
Canton Township Police Department and Canton Coalition for Inclusive Communities (CCIS)
City of Detroit/ Detroit Police Department
East Downtown Dearborn Development Authority and Black Legacy Advancement Coalition (BLAC)
Inkster Police Department
Beloved Community Initiative and First AME Church of Farmington Hills
It’s gotten a round of $200,000 in funding and is getting off the ground, so talk about what’s happening and the impact it aims to make, our guest.
That funding is on top of the $1 million the foundation has already contributed to the fund. The funding will be directed to arts and culture organizations that have already received grants through the fund but are still facing COVID-19-related challenges. Organizations will receive money equal to 40% of their most recent grant award. They will not have to apply.
“Bonfils-Stanton Foundation continues to monitor the significant impact of the pandemic on our community and the arts & culture sector,” said Gina Ferrari, Director of Grantmaking, in a prepared statement. “We know that some organizations continue to struggle, but many are optimistic as they adapt, implement new models and rebuild for a more sustainable future. While we hope our support over the past year has provided some relief, we are pleased to offer an additional unrestricted grant as you move forward.”

Wilsonville City Councilor Joann Linville expressed concern about the percentage of residents who had received a COVID-19 vaccine during a meeting Monday, May 4. Meanwhile, Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue is winding down its vaccination clinic at Wilsonville s Clackamas Community College, citing decreased demand and an increase in alternative vaccination options.
According to data compiled by The Oregonian as of April 14, 38.8% of the Wilsonville population in the 97070 ZIP code had been at least partially vaccinated. That number has likely risen since, as Linville noted. Current data in Oregon shows that 43% of residents have been fully vaccinated and 13% are in the process of getting vaccinated.
