Background:
Chicago CRED is a mission driven organization working to achieve transformational reduction in violence in Chicago. CRED does its work by offering direct services to those who are at the highest risk of violence, advocating for policy reform to increase public investment into community violence interventions, and promoting cross-sector coordination to achieve maximum impact.
Scaling Community Violence Intervention for a Safer Chicago, or SC2, is a growing
community of donors and anti-violence practitioners committed to working together to
advance one of the most promising near-term impact approaches, community

Communities (PSPC), a coalition of more than 50 foundations and other philanthropic

effective tools and practices.
The goal is to grow SC2 to include, at “one table,” all the private, philanthropic,
