How they approach the work
Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.
- Cure Violence Public Health Modelmethodology: cure-violence-modelBy treating violence as a preventable disease and deploying trained mentors to intervene with high-risk individuals, we reduce community violence because behavioral change is achieved through direct relationship-based outreach and norm shifting.
- Trauma-Informed, Integrated Reentry Programmingmethodology: integrated-youth-reentryBy addressing the root causes of violence through coordinated support in education, employment, emotional wellbeing, and community engagement, we promote nonviolence and successful reintegration because holistic, trauma-informed interventions increase personal agency and reduce recidivism.
- Workforce Development as Violence Preventionmethodology: workforce-development-as-violence-preventionBy providing employment and workforce opportunities to at-risk youth, we reduce gun violence and promote long-term success, because meaningful economic engagement channels youthful drive and talent away from violent pathways.
