Apply Now: Community Violence Intervention Learning Community 

********This application deadline has passed********

The Center for Policing Equity (CPE), in collaboration with The Council of State Governments (CSG) Justice Center, is hosting a virtual learning community focused on establishing and supporting community violence intervention programs as alternatives to law enforcement systems. The learning community will be led by CPE policy and community engagement staff and include opportunities for mutual learning and presentations from various attendees and leaders in the field. Teams will work toward building, implementing, or enhancing community violence intervention programs and exploring pathways to prevent violent interactions and recidivism.  

Upon completion of the learning community, teams will be equipped with an action plan to build their own community violence intervention program, including an implementation and funding plan. To build the plan, teams will work through a planning and implementation guide that covers key topics such as goal setting, applying data, resource mapping, policy review, program development, and sustainability. 

The Community Violence Intervention Learning Community session dates will be: 

• November 9, 2023 
• January 18, 2024 
• March 14, 2024 
• May 9, 2024 
• July 18, 2024 

All sessions will take place 2:00–3:30 p.m. ET via Zoom web meeting.
