Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2024, $199,896)

The East Bay Community Action Program serves Rhode Island by linking survivors with basic needs (e.g. health insurance, food pantry) while also connecting individuals with community support services (e.g., domestic violence programs, reconnecting them with community). The goal is to prevent revictimization by providing concrete resources and social/emotional support that allows clients to escape a cycle of violence.
