Results / Success Stories

People Reformed, Communities Transformed, Cities Revitalized

While Cure Violence communities have had impressive reductions in violence, the statistics fail to capture the profound effects that the program has had. To more fully capture the effects of the program, we have captured some of these stories – of conflicts prevented, lives saved, people reformed, communities transformed, and cities revitalized.

These stories are the reason we do what we do. Each one represents a step towards a world without violence.

What Others
Are Saying

I’ve seen this work; I’m in the middle of watching this work. I firmly believe in it.Chief Charlie Beck, Chief of Police, Los Angeles Police Department

During the lean times [when funding was unavailable], Cure Violence workers volunteered their time because they were that passionate about it. It was about more than money. It had to do with the sense of worth that people felt, in that what they were doing was really important in the community.Reverend Marshall Hatch, New Mount Pilgrim Missionary Baptist Church, Chicago
