LiveFree OKC’s mission is to build peace and reduce violence in Oklahoma City. It operates a community violence intervention program, focusing on Ward 7, in which it employs credible messengers to identify and intervene with individuals and circumstances at the highest risk for involvement in gun violence. Clients are provided wrap-around services to sustain a life of non-violence. This grant will allow the agency to work with consulting services to develop a School-Based Violence Intervention (SVI) program. SVI aims to address and mitigate violence in schools by implementing targeted interventions and fostering safer school environments.
