Despite the devastating impacts of intimate partner violence on communities across the country, traditional responses to it often fall short of what survivors and the people most impacted really need. In working with survivors in New York City and nationwide, we've seen firsthand the importance of taking a multifaceted approach to ending domestic violence.

For far too long, we’ve been told that we must choose between justice and safety, that those two goals are in direct competition. Community Justice challenges that false dichotomy, providing a path forward in divided times.

Barbershop talks hosted by our RISE team give men a chance to work through their feelings about relationships, self-love, and masculinity in a space they feel comfortable.

Green spaces are in short supply in historically marginalized neighborhoods, but investing in them makes for safer, healthier communities.

A human exchange over a cup of coffee can go a long way towards bringing humanity to a sometimes alienating experience.

The New Rochelle Community Justice Center is taking a new approach to building safety across the city by investing in young people's futures.

To achieve true justice, we must build safety. And for communities to feel truly safe, there must be justice.

As our work has evolved, our mission has only become stronger and clearer. That’s why we’re updating our mission statement to reflect the approach at the heart of all of our work: Community Justice.
