The Peacekeepers Program uses a proven strategy to create a safe presence and has been implemented in Chicagos most highly impacted blocks during afternoon to late-night hours mid-week and through the weekend. The model advances street outreach work and develops a diverse and sustainable workforce by engaging young people who live in neighborhoods that are at a high risk for violence to serve as Peacekeepers.
