The Black and Brown Gun Violence Prevention Consortium will serve as the conduit to identify, assess, and coordinate strategies in communities impacted by the cycle of violence.
Rather than infiltrate cities with one size fits all methodologies, the BBGVPC will be responsive by implementing or expanding grassroots approaches that integrate local champions, align local resources, and garner political will in order to build safe and sustainable communities.
BBGVPC is a strategic partnership of people of color led institutions working to create equitable opportunities and safe communities by using proven indigenous grassroots gun violence reduction strategies. Our primary purpose is to marshal our collective expertise through high quality technical assistance, program implementation, policy development, and research, as well as leverage our collective voices for systemic change.
It is our vision that the BBGVPC will create a theory of change such that communities of color impacted by gun violence will be resourced and empowered to create sustainable pathways to opportunity, justice, and peace.
