Kansas City has one of the highest murder rates in the nation. Faced with the constant threats of violence around us, it is time to come together as a community and take action. We are calling on you to join a Neighborhood Violence Response Team to support victims’ families, connect with at-risk youth, and create safe communities for all.

This is how you can make a difference in the world, by promoting peace and healing! Join us for orientation/training:

Join us in Johnson County! Health is more than just the absence of disease. It is the ability to thrive—physically, mentally, and spiritually.

We’ll explore how JoCo can work together to promote living, working, playing, and praying in healthier ways. All faiths are welcome.
