<strong>The</strong> Advocacy Foundation, Inc.<br />
Helping Individuals, Org<strong>an</strong>izations & Communities<br />
Achieve <strong>The</strong>ir Full Potential<br />
Since its founding in 2003, <strong>The</strong> Advocacy Foundation has become recognized as <strong>an</strong> effective<br />
provider <strong>of</strong> support to those who receive our services, having real impact within the communities<br />
we serve. We are currently engaged in community <strong>an</strong>d faith-based collaborative initiatives,<br />
having the overall objective <strong>of</strong> eradicating all forms <strong>of</strong> youth violence <strong>an</strong>d correcting injustices<br />
everywhere. In carrying-out these initiatives, we have adopted the evidence-based strategic<br />
framework developed <strong>an</strong>d implemented by the Office <strong>of</strong> Juvenile Justice & Delinquency<br />
Prevention (OJJDP).<br />
<strong>The</strong> stated objectives are:<br />
1. Community Mobilization;<br />
2. Social Intervention;<br />
3. Provision <strong>of</strong> Opportunities;<br />
4. Org<strong>an</strong>izational Ch<strong>an</strong>ge <strong>an</strong>d Development;<br />
5. Suppression [<strong>of</strong> illegal activities].<br />
Moreover, it is our most fundamental belief that in order to be effective, prevention <strong>an</strong>d<br />
intervention strategies must be Community Specific, Culturally Relev<strong>an</strong>t, Evidence-Based, <strong>an</strong>d<br />
Collaborative. <strong>The</strong> Violence Prevention <strong>an</strong>d Intervention programming we employ in<br />
implementing this community-enh<strong>an</strong>cing framework include the programs further described<br />
throughout our publications, programs <strong>an</strong>d special projects both domestically <strong>an</strong>d<br />
internationally.<br />
