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

OHA will host four public informational virtual meetings to clarify grant intention and outline eligibility requirements, and to answer questions from interested parties

Once released, the grant application will be posted in OregonBuys, the state's web-based eProcurement system: https://oregonbuys.gov/bso/. This website will be updated with application timelines once the grant is available.

With funding allocated by 2022 Oregon House Bill 4045, the Oregon Health Authority will release a new 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 funding to participate in the Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Program (HVIP) Expansion-Learning Community.
