The CTVIP Method

CTVIP is a one-stop shop for at-risk youth and generally at-risk victims of violence throughout the New Haven region. We have the skills to facilitate education, employment, connection to mental health resources and assistance in law enforcement/court system involvement. These connections and personal experiences make CTVIP a strong and unique organization that are on the frontlines with community members. 

 

CTVIP is a non-profit organization in New Haven that serves its surrounding communities. The organization is contracted to work with youth and young adults who are impacted by or involved with violence and the justice system.

Our program is based on a mix of different evidence-based models from across the country that focus on interrupting violence through a trauma informed lens. Violence is an epidemic and at CTVIP we treat it as a system issue.

​

CTVIP works with community partners, and local and state politicians to decrease violence within our communities. 

Our Vision
CTVIP works to create safe community for our most vulnerable. 

Our Mission
CTVIP is a group of trusted, trained community members that disrupt, prevent and stop the spread of violence which results in trauma through crisis intervention and proactive relationships with the highest-risk youths and the institutions that impact their lives.
