Do you believe that no-one should live with violence and that all people should be safe, respected and valued?

The CHIFVC does this through three principal working groups that:
A Collective Impact Framework shapes and guides the work of the Committee based on a Common Agenda. All participants have a shared vision for change and commit to a joint approach.
