Strong community violence intervention ecosystems depend on strong coordination.

 

The Health Alliance for Violence Intervention, in partnership with Cities United, the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform (NICJR), and Bonterra, is excited to introduce SafeStat®, a data management and coordination platform designed specifically for community violence intervention ecosystems.

SafeStat® connects offices of violence prevention, community-based organizations, hospital-based violence intervention programs, and other CVI partners through effective screening tools, shared data collection, data visualization, and management reports. By bringing information together, the platform can give stakeholders a clearer picture of risk, violent incidents, outreach, services, and responses across the CVI ecosystem.

 

A Network OF VIOLENCE INTERVENTION PROFESSIONALS

 

The HAVI supports an interdisciplinary community of violence intervention specialists, doctors, health administrators, and researchers, providing resources to enhance new and existing network programs. We offer a range of training and technical assistance for our robust alliance while supporting the growth of emerging HVIP programs.

Ad Council’s #AgreetoAgree Campaign Shifts the Narrative Around Community Violence

 

The HAVI is proud to partner with the Ad Council on the next phase of their Agree To Agree campaign.

This campaign does more than raise awareness. It helps the public see something they rarely have the opportunity to witness: the lifesaving work happening every day through community violence intervention.

Through a series of powerful PSAs and educational resources, the campaign introduces audiences to the trusted professionals and community leaders who are helping prevent violence before it occurs. Developed with input from practitioners across the country, these stories reflect the lived experiences, expertise, and humanity of the people closest to the work.
