“Our goal is not ending violence. It is liberation.”  -Beth Richie

Creative Interventions provides vision, tools and resources to help anyone and everyone create community-based, collective responses to domestic, family, and sexual violence. The community-based approach centers those closest to and most impacted by harm, honors their expertise, and builds collective knowledge and power as the solution to violence. 

Our vision is based upon liberation — the positive, life-affirming, transformative potential within our most oppressed communities. It builds upon compassion, care, and connection as the pathways to change — not policing, punishment, and isolation.

Aligned with transformative justice, community accountability, and, more simply, community-based responses to violence — Creative Interventions addresses responses to harm at all stages — prevention, early intervention, rapid response to crisis, and longer-term processes towards transformation.

Vision

Stop Violence Where it Starts

We believe that change can take place where violence first occurs -- in relationships, families and communities. We believe that the change makers, those who are the true experts, are those most impacted by violence -- survivors, their friends, families and communities - and - ultimately, the people who have caused harm.

Mobilize those closest to and most impacted by violence

We need an approach to violence prevention and intervention that builds upon mobilizing those most impacted by violence and those who care about them to create more coordinated responses to violence -- this provides multiple points at which people can collectively take action to stop violence before it reaches a crisis and to transform that violence if it has occured.

Build resources for community-based responses and transformative justice

We believe that friends, family, and community know most intimately the conditions that lead to violence as well as the values and strengths which can lead to its transformation. Creative Interventions provides stories & tools for collective, creative, and flexible solutions, which take into account the realities and resources of each situation and community.
