Street and household violence

Stopping retaliation after violence

Planned: trained interrupters, not slogans, in the 72 hours after a violent incident when retaliation is most likely.

In development. No groups are running and we are not enrolling yet. This is not treatment and not emergency help.

Who it is for

Neighborhoods with repeated injury, and families after a shock.

How it works

The model we want to build: a small paid team, a hospital-to-home handoff, and Harbor as a night-time companion for witnesses who cannot yet sleep.

What the evidence says

Cure Violence-style interruption has mixed but real results. When we run it, we will publish our results, including failures.
