Connecting Local Leaders For Change
At CCF, we believe transformative change happens through collaboration. By partnering with government agencies across L.A. County we can expand impact, move resources to the community faster, foster innovation, and drive systemic reform. Together, we create solutions that address our region’s biggest challenges.
CCF regularly partners with government agencies in LA County, receiving funding that supports grants to community organizations. A prime example is our partnership with the Los Angeles County Department of Health, in which nearly $18 million was granted for trauma prevention with the goal of preventing violent incidents, increasing access to care and healing-centered services, and creating youth leadership opportunities.
Additional public-private partnerships include LA n Sync, a civic initiative designed to spur innovation and attract funding to address the critical needs of Los Angeles County, and Ready to Rise, a $38+ million public-private partnership between CCF, Liberty Hill Foundation and the Los Angeles County Probation Department designed to improve outcomes for Los Angeles County youth at-risk of entering the justice system.
To date, LA n Sync has raised more than $330 million in grants and other funding. Ready to Rise has recently received $12.5 million in funding from LA County Probation for youth development and enrichment services focused on diversion and prevention versus ineffective punitive measures.
Ready to Rise funding helps grantees provide a variety of programs focused on educational attainment, leadership, workforce development, mentorship, arts, wellness, youth organizing and other areas.
