<strong>The</strong> Advocacy Foundation, Inc.<br />
Helping Individuals, Organizations & Communities<br />
Achieve <strong>The</strong>ir Full Potential<br />
Since its founding in 2003, <strong>The</strong> Advocacy Foundation has become recognized as an 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 and faith-based collaborative initiatives,<br />
having the overall objective <strong>of</strong> eradicating all forms <strong>of</strong> youth violence and correcting injustices<br />
everywhere. In carrying-out these initiatives, we have adopted the evidence-based strategic<br />
framework developed and 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. Organizational Change and Development;<br />
5. Suppression [<strong>of</strong> illegal activities].<br />
Moreover, it is our most fundamental belief that in order to be effective, prevention and<br />
intervention strategies must be Community Specific, Culturally Relevant, Evidence-Based, and<br />
Collaborative. <strong>The</strong> Violence Prevention and Intervention programming we employ in<br />
implementing this community-enhancing framework include the programs further described<br />
throughout our publications, programs and special projects both domestically and<br />
internationally.<br />
