Friend,

Two weeks ago, life-saving crime prevention and victim support programs lost federal funding. This will increase crime and jeopardize public safety for everyone. 

The cuts impact organizations that provide life-saving programs and interventions that ensure safety for residents in neighborhoods across the country through victim services, community violence intervention, domestic violence victim services and youth programming.

• Victim Services: 82 grants totaling $132 million canceled
• Community Violence Intervention: 109 grants totaling $249 million canceled 
• Domestic Violence Victims’ Services: 29 grants worth $18 million canceled

Take action NOW and tell your representatives to reverse the cuts. Your voice - every voice - matters.   

These cuts will result in fewer crime victims getting support and safety, higher costs to businesses and taxpayers, thousands more homicides, tens of thousands more aggravated assaults, and tens of thousands more people injured in the coming years.

ACT NOW: Tell your representative to stand up for public safety.   

Onward together, 

Aswad Thomas
