HOLISTIC HEALING OF THE CULTURE

Movement4Life employs a holistic, healing-centered approach to community gun violence interruption and reduction. Engaging the individuals with the highest probability of committing and/or experiencing community gun violence, Movement4Life utilizes mentors (with shared life experiences) to wrap participants in comprehensive and restorative support services, while building transformational 1-on-1 relationships.

STRATEGIC SOLUTIONS

FROM THE STREETS TO THE POLICY FLOOR

Forming strategic partnerships with allies, supporters, and advocates is an important part of Movement4Life's work. Sustainable, long-term investment in gun violence interruption efforts is essential, and we must ensure this fact must be reflected in state and local policy.

We educate city leaders and state-level policy makers on the value of violence prevention programs that create sustainable long-term change.

ABOUT US

UNCONVENTIAL PROGRAM
UNPRECDENTED RESULTS

Movement4Life (formerly Advance Peace Sacramento) is a fellowship based, gun violence interruption and reduction program in Sacramento, California.  In 2018, Movement4Life began strategically and exclusively addressing the unserved, narrowly defined population: "the 1% most likely to commit gun violence and/or be harmed by gun violence".  That year marked the start of the historic (1st time ever) 28 month stretch of zero juvenile homicides in Sacramento.

RISING TO THE CHALLENGE

“It’s easy to view our fellows as broken and to write them off as lost causes. It requires courage, strength, and hope to believe in redemption, acknowledge our collective contribution to the problem, and commit to supporting this challenging, yet life-saving work.” 

JULIUS THIBODEAUX HASAN| MOVEMENT4LIFE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR & AUTHOR OF CULTIVATION OF THE HEART

THE POWER IN PARTNERSHIP

Significant and sustained reduction in community gun violence requires a comprehensive, community-based, village-style approach. Healing The Hood, an initiative through the Black Child Legacy campaign, is a well-established network of service providers, high-touch prevention programs, and crisis response teams, collectively focused on reducing juvenile homicides in Sacramento. Movement4Life is a proud partner in the Healing the Hood Network since 2018.
