SUBJECT: (ALL) Authorize Execution of a Contract with the United Way of Tarrant County to
Implement the One Second Collaborative to Address Youth Gun Violence
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to enter into an agreement with United Way of Tarrant County to
implement the One Second Collaborative to address youth gun violence.
DISCUSSION:
This Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize a contract with United Way of Tarrant
County to use of up to $4,411,0800.00 of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Subtitle M(Coronavirus
State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF)) funding to reduce gun violence in the City of Fort
Worth (City). ARPA Section 9901, Subsection 603(c)(1)(A) provides funding to improve the public
health of the City through gun violence intervention programs. Providing matching funds for eligible
joint projects with other agencies was also determined to be a qualified priority by City Management
for ARPA funding as approved by the City Council in Mayor & Council Communication (M&C) 21-0445
on June 22, 2021. ARPA funds must be committed by December 31, 2024 and spent by December
31, 2026.
In coordination with United Way of Tarrant County and Tarrant County, Fort Worth Police Department
(FWPD) proposes to establish the One Second Collaborative. The One Second Collaborative is a
joint effort to strategically and comprehensively disrupt gun violence among young adults and
teenagers in targeted zones across our community. The collective mental health of the community
has been significantly strained due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Shootings involving children and
teenagers have been on the rise in recent years. Experts say idleness caused by the COVID-19
pandemic shares the blame with easy access to guns and disputes that too often end with gunfire.
Our community has lost more than 100 young people of middle or high school age over the past six
years. Just last year, 29 young people ages 12 to 18 were shot and killed in Tarrant County, the most
in at least the last 10 years (Source: Star Telegram). Black teenagers are disproportionately shot and
killed in Tarrant County. Despite being only 18\% of the total county population, black teenagers make
up more than half of the shooting victims and deaths.
Together, FWPD, United Way of Tarrant County, the City of Fort Worth, Tarrant County and countless
additional stakeholders are coming together to address the escalating issue of youth gun violence.
The goal is to reduce youth gun violence based upon assessment data from TCU/Rutgers and input
from community.
Community leaders unite, acknowledge problem of gun violence and need to support FWPD in efforts
to address issues, launch One Second Collaborative, announce Steering Committee
1. Steering Committee forms, establishes agreed upon formal structure (law enforcement,
criminal justice, schools, social services, community-based groups, faith-based organizations,
affected members of community, local government all represented)
