Community Violence Prevention

About HB 4045

Oregon House Bill 4045 defined community violence as an intentional act of interpersonal violence committed in public by someone who is not the victim’s family member or intimate partner. The Oregon Health Authority’s Injury & Violence Prevention and Medicaid Programs are supporting development of sustainable programs to help communities break the cycle of community violence.

NEW: Funding Opportunity

With funding allocated by 2022 Oregon House Bill 4045, the Oregon Health Authority has released a grant opportunity to support development of hospital-based violence intervention programs. Hospitals and community-based, non-profit organizations in Oregon that serve people outside Multnomah County can request up to $50,000 in seed grant funding to support participation in a Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Program (HVIP) learning community from July 2023 to June 2024. Proposals must be received by May 26, 2023.

Informational Calls

OHA will host two public informational virtual meetings to clarify grant intention and eligibility and to answer questions from interested parties. Both meetings will be recorded; recordings and a written response to all questions from attendees and other parties will be posted to this page when available.
