PEACE ORLANDO
Community Violence Intervention
In November 2022, FRRC launched a Community Violence Intervention (CVI) initiative called Peace Orlando. CVI is a proven community-based gun violence reduction strategy that is backed by extensive research and is endorsed by the U.S. Department of Justice as one of the most effective means of reducing violence.
BAIL FUND | LEGAL DEFENSE FUND
For many returning citizens, voting is a step in a restorative journey. The state of Florida led many of these citizens to believe that they could exercise their right to vote, and then it arrested, jailed and charged them in front of their friends, families and neighbors. Voter integrity starts at the front end of our election process. We’ve created Bail and Legal Defense Funds to help financially challenged returning citizens who’ve been unjustly arrested for voting.
