Welcome to the official Puente Valley Community Action for Peacewebsite. We are a coalition committed to breaking cycles of violence and fostering healing through non-punitive, community-led change.
Founded in 2023, our coalition unites a diverse range of voices—including local residents, grassroots and community-based organizations, faith leaders, schools, and other stakeholders—to tackle the root causes of violence in our neighborhoods.
Together, we create spaces where healing can happen and work collaboratively to build a safer community through collective action and shared responsibility.
We Believe
Transformative care comes from the community.
Lived experiences are expertise.
Collaboration, trust, and empowerment are integral.
Intentional and strategic action- oriented initiatives build a safer community.
