Undoubtedly, if you live in a community with violence, it affects your life every day. You want to do something about the violence. At the same time, you want the people involved to get help. Similarly, you believe that solutions come from within the community. Above all, you want the approach you use to work.
Cure Violence Global can help every step of the way.
”Violence interrupters are essential to helping calm the streets. They’re essential to helping keep the violence down. They’re essential to supporting our communities. My office is proud to support the Cure Violence model.

Findings from independent evaluations by prominent researchers
Because of his commitment to reducing violence, President Biden visited Cure Violence partner Community Capacity Development (CCD). CCD is a longtime partner of CVG in New York City.
The president said, “The program I’m going to see this afternoon. They send people to the community to interrupt violence, to mediate conflicts, to de-escalate. They succeeded in preventing a single shooting from occurring in this largest public housing development last year. No shooting for a full year because they engaged directly with the community.”
Without a doubt, this is the most high-profile endorsement of the Cure Violence approach to date!
