Safe Streets
Evidence-based violence prevention & interruption program that works in high violence areas.
About Us
Safe Streets is a public health initiative aimed at reducing shootings and homicides in targeted areas of Baltimore City. It is a movement holding the belief that violence is a disease that can be cured. Safe Streets employs credible messengers that were born and raised in the community and who are well known in the community. They are taught conflict resolution and conflict mediation training and then injected back into their communities as the antidote against the disease of violence. This is achieved by targeting and building rapport with the high risk and key individuals who are likely to be the victims of a shooting or homicide.
