Amidst rising gun violence in Providence, the nonprofit agency that has been instrumental in fighting it is getting financial help. On Thursday, Brown University, the Rhode Island Foundation and the Partnership for Rhode Island announced their $500,000 gift to the Nonviolence Institute, which supports victims and acts as an intermediary between gangs in an effort to break the cycle of retaliation. Cedric Huntley, the institute’s executive director, told The Providence Journal that while the allocation of the funding remains under discussion, it will be used in part to hire key staffers such as a grants manager, a grants writer and a communications official.
