ON APRIL 22, THE DOJ SLASHED MILLIONS IN LIFESAVING FUNDING.
NOW IS THE TIME TO FIGHT BACK.
New Jersey’s community violence intervention programs are in crisis.
NJVIP is demanding that state leadership act immediately by appropriating emergency bridge funding to keep CVIPI-funded programs alive. Without swift intervention, essential services will vanish, frontline staff will remain laid off, and hard-won public safety gains will be lost.
Add your voice to the call for action now.
