SAFETY IS GOOD FOR BUSINESS
CVI’S ROI IS $20 TO $1.
There’s more than one way to measure the cost of gun violence, but we know every shooting costs the people of Chicago more than we can afford.

Our critical work heals and restores Chicago communities with the highest incidences of shootings through meaningful partnerships with community violence intervention (CVI) organizations.
