Forming a Community Collaboration to Support CVI | LISC Safety & Justice

This webinar supports the Community Based Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative (CVIPI), a historic federal investment in community violence intervention programs.

This initiative seeks to prevent and reduce violent crime in communities by supporting comprehensive, evidence-based violence intervention and prevention programs based on partnerships among community residents, local government agencies, victim service providers, community-based organizations, law enforcement, hospitals, researchers, and other community stakeholders.

Through this program, LISC is helping build out the National CVIPI Resource and Field Support Center as a hub of resources for local practitioners seeking to understand and implement CVI approaches. Through the CVIPI Resource and Field Support Center, LISC Safety & Justice staff and a diverse array of CVI subject matter expert partners develop quality, practical, evidence-based/evidence- informed CVI resources, and offer tailored training and technical assistance to selected jurisdictions.
