The Anti-Violence Partnership
of Philadelphia is a unique organization helping children and
youth resolve conflict nonviolently, while assisting victims
and their families to rebuild their lives in the aftermath of
violence. Our mission is to end the cycle of violence in Philadelphia
through comprehensive and collaborative programs.
AVP was founded over 25 years ago as a support
group for families who have lost a loved one to murder. AVP's
original program, Families of Murder Victims (FMV), quickly
became a valuable support group for co-victims of homicide
by offering court accompaniment, advocacy and support.
