Dear John,
We’re facing a critical moment.
The Department of Justice’s decision to cut funding for the Community Based Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative (CVIPI) threatens the very programs that keep our communities safe. It’s on us to respond with urgency, with power, and with unified action.
We’re organizing a series of phonebanks and trainings to mobilize advocates across the country. Whether you’re a frontline worker, a youth leader, or a supporter of community-led safety, there’s a role for you in this fight.
Upcoming #ProtectCVI Phonebanks
General Phonebank: Mobilizing CVI leaders, frontline workers, advocates, and supporters.

Coming Soon: A #ProtectCVI Virtual Town Hall , and the August Recess Mobilizing Toolkit to support our ongoing advocacy efforts.
Our communities deserve sustained investment — not broken promises.
Join us in calling for action and accountability. Let’s #ProtectCVI together.
In solidarity,
Team Community Justice
