The future of public safety is community built.
Investments in community-based public safety are effectively reducing violence across the country. And yet, decades of underinvestment have left many programs under-built and under-supported, without the infrastructure to fully deliver on their promise. We help community-based initiatives close the gaps and reach their full potential.

What Our Partners Say
I've had the privilege of working at the highest levels of government, and I can say with confidence that there are very few technical assistance providers or subject matter experts who can translate theory into practice as effectively as Soren. His ability to recognize and elevate the strengths of people with lived experience while simultaneously building durable systems for public safety nonprofits is unmatched. In today's political climate, it's not enough to lead with heart and compassion alone; we need thinkers like Soren who bring sharp analytical insight, strategic discipline, and a deep commitment to sustaining transformative work in communities.
I've had the chance to work with Raven and Soren both individually and as a team, and while each brings tremendous value on their own, their partnership brings out the best in each other and in the work.
Raven has a way of energizing a room and connecting with people quickly. Soren coaches with clarity and without judgment. Together, they're skilled listeners who help clients in government and community set ambitious but realistic goals, navigate complex projects and relationships, and stay the course. I have seen how they do this even when conflict, traumatic events, or competing priorities threaten to throw things off track.
Their deep expertise in community violence intervention — especially Soren's leadership on the READI model — combined with Raven's ability to engage frontline providers and develop leaders, makes them uniquely effective. Whether they're delivering a training, facilitating a strategy session, or helping move a project from idea to action, they approach the work with integrity, focus, and deep skill.
Soren is an exceptional bridge between researchers and community organizations. His ability to speak both languages builds trust and drives real collaboration. He was instrumental in helping us secure a $2.4 million NIH grant and played a key role in launching our FOREST program that promotes resilience in CVI workers. When we hit some barriers to implementation of the program, Soren's strategic thinking helped us navigate partnership challenges that could have derailed our work.
His deep expertise in CVI and broad national network have been invaluable as we've grown and connected with others in the field. Soren brings clarity, commitment, and a rare ability to unite diverse stakeholders around shared goals.
Working with Soren Tsui is one of the best professional decisions you can make when looking for support implementing Community Violence Intervention (CVI) projects/initiatives!
Throughout my time working with him, I have experienced his vast knowledge and expertise in the CVI field, innovative and creative problem-solving regarding program implementation challenges, and consistent delivery of high quality and curated services. Soren has and continues to play an instrumental part in our success with implementing and adapting program models to meet the need and context of the people and communities that it serves.
