Los Angeles Violence Intervention Coalition
Convened by the Urban Peace Institute, the Los Angeles Violence Intervention Coalition (LAVIC) is comprised of 20+ Black and Brown-led organizations that represent the most violence-impacted communities in Los Angeles. LAVIC is on the frontlines of addressing community violence and is committed to creating peace and safety. The Coalition envisions a new paradigm for public safety that centers community-based interventions. LAVIC is deeply committed to bridging divides across the communities that we serve. We know the future of a peaceful Los Angeles will be built and sustained by multi-ethnic coalitions that form a unified voice to transform systems to better serve the needs of our communities.
