Safe Homes
No one is injured, killed or threatened by a gun in a home and all firearm suicides are prevented
Our Vision
To harness the collective power of individuals, communities, corporate leaders, government and philanthropy to ensure that homes and communities in California are safe and free from death, injury and trauma caused by gun violence.
Safe Communities
All neighborhoods are free from gun violence including our schools, houses of worship, community spaces and workplaces; and the cycle of gun violence is broken in California’s impacted communities
In the Spotlight
Aligned vision for an equitable and safer California Hope and Heal Fund intentionally leads by example and puts racial equity at the center of all that we do and where we fund. Racial equity is not new to Hope and Heal Fund. We know racism is inextricably connected to gun violence and cannot be ignored if we are to successfully reduce the incidences of injuries, trauma, and deaths as a result of gun violence.
Implications For California and our Partners California has the opportunity to be the national leader on solving the public crisis of gun violence and the centuries-long crisis of systemic racism. Hope and Heal Fund is committed to funding, supporting, and amplifying community-driven, public health solutions proven to prevent gun violence and the trauma and injuries that have impacted Californians for a very long time, especially people of color.
