Grant For Family Tree Clinic

This grant will support the work of Relationships Evolving Possibilities (REP), fiscally sponsored by Family Tree Clinic. REP is developing steps to build community response capacity and preparing vetted resources as an approach to public safety. The two umbrellas of REP are Revolutionary Emergency Partners and Radical Ecosystem Pods. The first element, Revolutionary Emergency Partners, will provide emergency care to community members via a secure hotline. The second element, Radical Ecosystem Pods, will facilitate and build community capacity to respond to crises through trainings and relationship building. This work will fortify neighborhood resources and skills around mental health incidents, situational management, and de-escalation, which will overall minimize the need to reach beyond our own community for crisis support.
