Interrupt &
Innovate.
We prevent youth violence the only way that actually works: by being there first. Mentorship, skills, and stages — for kids the system has written off.

How it works
Simple. Trauma-informed.
01
Outreach
We meet youth where they are — schools, courts, community centers.
02
Mentorship
Long-term relationships with adults who look like them and have walked the same road.
03
Stages, not cages
Music, performance, and entrepreneurship — proof of concept that they have something to say.
A $1,000 gift sponsors a youth through the full year-long program.
