LET'S GIVE EVERYONE A FIRST CHANCE

With your investment, we can reduce homicides, treat trauma, and transform lives. We can work with individuals who are not just at risk but in crisis, and help them to stay alive, stay out of jail, and get on a path where they are not in crisis but are able to develop a healthy peaceful life, and become the next changemakers, the catalysts for peace in their families and communities.

NOW IS THE MOMENT

We are at a critical moment in the District. The number of homicides and shootings remain high, and along with it, the number of families devastated by gun violence.  We have an opportunity to turn things around. We cannot wait.  One murder is one murder too many.

EVERYONE IN DC HAS THE BASIC HUMAN RIGHT TO LIVE IN SAFETY AND PEACE.

We can’t keep doing the same thing again and again and expect different results. We can’t keep trying ineffective models, or no model at all, for public safety. Communities don’t want to be handed a public safety plan. It’s about going deeper, embracing community, powering up narrowly focused evidence-based community-powered solutions. And reaching the right people with the surgical specific care and treatment - for their trauma - for their future. 

NOW IS THE MOMENT

We are at a critical moment in the District. The number of homicides and shootings continue to rise, and along with it, the number of families devastated by gun violence.  We have an opportunity to turn things around. We cannot wait.  One murder is one murder too many.
