TOWN NIGHTS
We believe in the power of relationships to prevent and reduce violence in our communities.
We are committed to building social capital, social infrastructure, and social contracts in Oakland.
Town Nights is a community-driven, multi-generational violence prevention and intervention strategy that involves four components:
1
Outreach to community members to attend events
2
Employment opportunities for residents who work at events
3
Recreational activities and food available for free to all attendees
4
Violence interruption dialogues facilitated by violence interrupters and community engagement teams that are intended to reduce future violence
