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.
