SUMMARY:Communities Fighting Back to Prevent Firearm Violence
DESCRIPTION:Can communities sustain the fight against firearm violence amid shrinking federal support? In Newark\, New Jersey\, local funders and advocates are showing what’s possible. \n\nThis panel brought together public health leaders\, funders\, and community advocates for a conversation on how democratizing access to data can empower community organizations as collaborators for public safety\, and how funders can invest in\, scale\, and sustain these efforts. Although this discussion was rooted in Newark’s urban setting\, the approaches highlighted offered valuable lessons for all funders interested in community safety. \n  \n\nSpeakers Included: \n\nAlejandro Giménez Santana\, Executive Director\, Newark Public Safety Collaborative\, Rutgers University\nWill Simpson\, Strengthen Community Power Strategy Officer\, Victoria Foundation\nRey Chavis\, Executive Director\, Newark Community Street Team\nMichael Schmidt\, Executive Director and CEO\, Healthcare Foundation of New Jersey (Moderator)\n\nSlides and Recording:  \nCommunities Fighting Back_Jan 14 2026 Slides \n
