Baltimore’s Violence Prevention Program Faces Budget Cuts

Baltimore’s Safe Streets program, crucial in the city’s marked decline in crime rates, faces a dire funding crisis with projected cuts of $1.2 million from federal grants. This initiative, which has played a pivotal role in achieving significant milestones, including areas recording a full year without homicides, is now under threat due to budget reductions from the Trump administration’s Department of Justice.

Freedom Jones, director of violence intervention programs, warns that without these essential funds, the hard-earned progress in reducing gun violence in communities may be undone. The Safe Streets approach, which focuses on engaging neighborhoods and denormalizing violence, has proven effective over its nearly two-decade history, but community leaders stress that more resources are needed to expand its reach and impact.
