Speaking Truth to Power: 5 Key Themes and Directions for Violence Prevention

Date Published:  October 2017

Summary

In recognition of the dramatically shifting national landscape, and with support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and Kaiser Permanente Community Benefit, nearly 25 leaders in community violence prevention gathered to strategize about where we go from here – for cities and counties, and as a network and movement – in support of safer communities. The meeting’s dialogue and outcomes underscore the value of speaking truth to power. While the meeting leveraged relationships forged through Prevention Institute’s UNITY City Network, the key themes and directions highlight the state of violence prevention and represent a broader shared agenda across locales and national networks.
