Miami-Dade County Peace and Prosperity

Miami-Dade County is tackling the root causes of gun violence by implementing the Miami-Dade County Peace and Prosperity: Youth Development and Empowerment Initiative, which aims to positively impact at-risk and system-involved youth through comprehensive programming and interactions. This initiative expands existing anti-violence efforts under the Peace & Prosperity Plan and Community Violence Intervention Initiative, offering activities like paid internships, college scholarships, and educational opportunities.
