Empowering a Community in Building Resiliency
Peace4Tarpon, a non-profit community organization committed to educating all sectors of the community regarding the impact of individual and systemic trauma and creating a just, healthy and resilient Tarpon Springs, just announced the recipients of its Building Resiliency Grants.
On March 31, nine mini-grants up to $1,000 each were awarded to individuals, schools and organizations which had submitted proposals designed to build resiliency within Zone 1 of Tarpon Springs, one of the five neighborhoods in Pinellas County which struggles with negative factors related to higher levels of poverty. The grants were awarded to address expressed needs arising from interviews which had been conducted by Peace4Tarpon’s Community Outreach Action Team, chaired by Carl vom Eigen and Chris Warwick, with people living and/or working within Zone 1.
