Our Team

We employ Violence Interrupters and Outreach Workers to utilize a multi-pronged approach to prevent shootings involving youth and young adults from ages 14-25, the model relies on the use of culturally appropriate staff who respond to shootings to prevent retaliation and detect and resolve conflicts that are likely to lead to shootings. They develop relationships with high risk individuals who are likely to engage in gun violence, counsel them to consider prosocial lifestyle changes and link them with resources such as education and job training.
