Leadership That Can Solve Gun Violence
In this indispensable read for anyone involved in Community Violence Intervention (CVI) work within communities affected by cyclical and retaliatory violence worldwide, DeVone Boggan, the founder of Advance Peace and the nation’s longest established office of violence prevention, the Office of Neighborhood Safety in Richmond, California, shares a profound understanding of the significance of ones leadership acumen and reach in achieving optimal public safety outcomes in communities impacted by gun violence. Drawing from his extensive experience leading CVI teams and training CVI leaders, Boggan offers reader-friendly accounts and examples of frontline challenges that every CVI leader must be prepared to face. In Leading Peace, he takes us into the “APZone,” environments where retaliatory gun violence is prevalent.

Regardless of the environment you serve in—government, not-for-profit, or business—the principles shared by DeVone Boggan will positively impact your leadership character and influence with those whose lives you are helping to improve.
