Oregon revoked funding for Christian gang-violence group Youth 71Five Ministries due to faith-based hiring practices.
Oregon revoked funding for a Christian group, Youth 71Five Ministries, fighting gang violence due to their hiring practices requiring employees and volunteers to sign a statement of faith.

The ministry has received funding since 2017 for youth violence and gang prevention.
