Other programs at United Playaz are short term projects that consist of annual events such as Gun Buy Backs hosted in collaboration with SFPD whereby we raise private funds to buy back firearms at the cost of $200 for each auto/semi-automatic weapon and $100 for all other firearms. These funds also provide short term youth jobs and pay for speakers to provide presentations to youth about how gun violence has affected themselves, families and communities. Other programs include projects of the SOMA Youth Collaborative with the purpose of serving as the community liaison, coordinating community services for students and families, at our local schools Bessie Carmichael Elementary and Middle School. Coordination efforts focus upon providing ancillary supports to both the schools and their population, and also creating a succinct network of service providers with a shared vision for building the capacity of children and youth services in our ever and rapidly changing community of South of Market.
