We invite you to share your story as part of our Case Study series. We aim to collect stories from survivors in an effort to identify trends to determine if survivors have been well served by the critical systems they interact with in the aftermath of violence (eg.

If you're reading this, you already know that violence touches more that the victim.
|
Every act of senseless violence leaves a trail of hurting and confused people ... children, spouses, friends and family ... with too many hard questions and not enough real answers. And after "Why?", the most-asked question seems to be "What can I do to keep someone else from having to endure this pain too?"
Surviors for Violence Prevention exists to help answer those questions, and try to ease the pain of the loss of a loved one. We can, because we know exactly what you're going through ... because we are survivors of violence ourselves.
We invite you to use this site to share your story ... connect with others ... discuss your issues with people who share your loss, and learn from others who have been survived similar experiences ... and find resources to aid you in your current situation.
And most of all, we invite you to join with us ... in a powerful, united voice ... to inform and influence our decision-makers to keep these tragedies from happening again and again.
