This organization is partnered with the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, the Gates Police Department, and the Rochester Police Department, as well as members of the City of Rochester's faith-based community. This collaborative mission will seek to implement anti-violence initiatives through community outreach, education, and the Church, while creating strategies to address the current rash of violence that has plagued the community.
