Violent Gang And Gun Crime Reduction Program (PSN)
Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) is designed to create safer neighborhoods through a sustained reduction in crime associated with gang and gun violence, and violent offenders.
The program's effectiveness is based on the cooperation of local, state, and federal agencies engaged in a unified approach led by the U. S. Attorney (USA) in each district.
The USA is responsible for establishing a collaborative PSN task force of federal, state, and local law enforcement and other community members to implement gang and gun crime enforcement, intervention and prevention initiatives within the district.
Through the PSN task force, the USA will implement the five design features of PSN ”partnerships, strategic planning, training, outreach, and accountability ”to address specific gun and gang crime, and violent offenders, in the most violent neighborhoods.

Keeping Half the Profits Beats Non-profits for Social Impact
Melbourne social enterprise Who Gives A Crap sold nearly 3 million rolls of toilet paper in 2014/15 and gave half the proceeds to WaterAid Australia, but co-founder Simon Griffiths says the donation would have been less had the startup adopted a non-profit model when it launched two years ago.
