Violence Interruption

This multi-service neighborhood program, is a direct service to our clients, and promotes a public health approach to violence. We promote a public health approach to violence by integrating best practice models based on the 3 stages of violence prevention and intervention, as well as trauma-informed care, adolescent neuroscience, and strategies for building collective efficacy (community-building and transformation)

Population(s) Served
Adolescents
At-risk youth
People of African descent

The Streets Ain't For Everybody. We provide rapid rehousing for community members experiencing homlessness. Born from the dreams and experiences of Deirdre Nicole, our trauma coordinator, and the impact of the 2020 tornado, this program works to provide safety from predatory landlords, interpersonal violence and systemic violence.
Housing is an essential principle of restorative justice and this program operates from a restorative framework and is a part of our vision to eradicate violence in North Nashville.

Population(s) Served
Homeless people
People of African descent
Families

We have a market in the heart of North Nashville that also offers free food & workforce development, offering food to 37208, Nashville's most racially & economically disadvantaged zip codes. Upcoming farmer partnerships underway including PickTN.
