From AP:

Governor Tim Kaine has launched an anti-gang initiative that will provide communities with grants to help fund positive opportunities for at-risk youth.

The $10,000 grants will be made available to 30 communities on a competitive basis. Communities can begin applying for the funds in August....

Kaine also signed an executive order creating an anti-gang workgroup that will work with local and state organizations to help prevent and reduce gang violence.
