Public safety nonprofits across New York City say they’re scrambling to fill major funding gaps after the Trump administration terminated millions of dollars in antiviolence grants this year – and may be facing an uptick in violence if the money isn’t replaced.

Five organizations working in New York City to reduce gun violence, aid crime victims, house domestic violence survivors and counsel at-risk youth say the cuts have forced them to lay off staff and scale back services. The groups say those reductions have already hampered their ability to connect with the residents most affected by crime, and they worry recent progress in those neighborhoods could be jeopardized.
