More peace in our communities

Communities across America have been held hostage by rising rates of youth violence, vandalism and substance abuse. People want to be able to take a walk after dark or send their child to the store without fearing for their lives.

There is solid evidence that concerted action within a community can significantly decrease all of those statistics, increase the sense of safety, and enhance community involvement and pride. At PAXIS, we are committed to developing solutions to difficult community problems, and to providing information, materials and training to bring more peace to our communities.

The PAXIS Simple Gifts Initiative™ integrates scientifically proven information, tools and ideas available on electronic media with traditional public safety information campaigns, workshops and training in the community or on-line, and linked reproducible materials for use by law enforcement, schools, businesses, faith communities, youth organizations, multiple family dwellings, neighborhood centers, etc.
