Program areas at Wisdom Projects
By 2023, Wisdom Projects' violence prevention programming eliminated homicides and suicides among the enrolled population and reduced community members' evictions in the housing Projects to just one, and this impact has been maintained until this day. By 2023, after a high of 46 percent, Wisdom Projects' violence prevention programming reduced the percentage of monthly incidents of domestic violence and intimate-partner violence to 13 percent and holding. When we began our work, 42 percent of middle and high school aged youth in our programming had contact with the criminal or juvenile justice systems through arrest or conviction. By the beginning of 2023, only 4 percent of enrolled youth were arrested and, since 2020, no youth enrollee has been convicted of a crime.
