Healing systemic and interpersonal violence

 
 
 
 
 

The Health Alliance for Violence Intervention (HAVI)’s mission is to reduce violence, particularly in communities of color, by advancing hospital-based violence intervention programs and coordinated, community-led systems that heal trauma and promote equity.

A Public Health Crisis Requires a Public Health Solution

Health care must be responsive to the needs of victims of violence. That starts with providing equitable care that addresses more than just physical wounds. Hospital-based and hospital-linked programs (HVIPs) throughout the country are advancing comprehensive models of care that address the intersectional nature of trauma, social determinants of health, and violence.

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.
