Advance Peace

Join us at Advance Peace, where we are committed to ending the destructive cycle of cyclical and retaliatory gun violence in American urban neighborhoods. With over 117,000 people shot annually in the United States, the urgency to address this issue is paramount.

Our mission is clear: we invest in the individuals at the heart of urban conflicts, empowering them to transform their lives and contribute to the creation of healthy, safe, and equitable communities.

In many impoverished and underserved areas, gun homicides disproportionately affect communities of color, turning neighborhoods into virtual war zones. Traditional systems of support often fail to reach those most deeply entrenched in these cycles of violence, leading to a lack of trust and further exacerbating the problem.

That's where Advance Peace steps in with our innovative solution, the Peacemaker Fellowship®. This transformative program provides personalized, high-touch support to young men involved in lethal firearm offenses. By addressing the root causes of violence and offering pathways to redemption and success, we break the cycle of gun hostilities and alter the trajectories of these individuals' lives.

We believe in collaboration, working closely with both public and community-based stakeholders to develop responsive, community-driven strategies. Together, we achieve high-impact outcomes and create lasting change for those caught in the grip of urban gun violence.

Join us in our mission to build a future where every neighborhood is safe, every life is valued, and every individual has the opportunity to thrive!
