Community Anti-Violence Programs (CAVP)

Community Anti-Violence Programs (CAVPs) are local initiatives focused on reducing violence and promoting safety within neighborhoods. They collaborate with community members, law enforcement, and service providers to prevent violence, support victims, and address root causes like inequality and social issues. By offering education, conflict resolution, and support services, CAVPs aim to create safer, healthier communities where everyone can thrive. These programs emphasize prevention and community engagement to build trust and sustainable change, ultimately fostering a sense of safety and cohesion among residents.
