The Health Alliance for Violence Intervention is a nonprofit organization based in Boston, Massachusetts. Its work centers on reducing violence, with particular emphasis on communities of color, by strengthening hospital-based violence intervention programs and creating coordinated, community-led systems that address trauma and promote equity. As a small organization, HAVI collaborates with hospitals, community groups, and other partners to support interventions for violence survivors and their families. In the broader nonprofit landscape of violence prevention and public health, HAVI positions itself as a facilitator of cross-sector efforts. In 2024, it partnered with the QSIDE Institute to publish a report examining the relationship between media and gun violence. Earlier collaborations include a 2023 alliance with Kaiser Permanente to coordinate the Center for Gun Violence Research and Education, reflecting the organization's engagement with healthcare systems and research partners.
