Camp CVLN

Camp CVLN is the core skills-building and strategy training hub of the conference, designed to equip participants across the ecosystem with practical tools, legal insight, and cross-sector alignment to strengthen community safety work. Structured as an immersive, hands-on training experience, Camp CVLN brings together practitioners, advocates, and legal leaders to deepen capacity, build shared language, and accelerate coordinated action in the community violence intervention field. A central goal of Camp CVLN is cross-training between the CVI and legal communities so participants leave better prepared to work in true partnership.

Camp CVLN is designed to move participants from insight to action while strengthening the shared capacity and coordination between the CVI and legal communities needed to build safer, healthier, and more hopeful communities.

Field Visits

Field Visits Day offers conference participants a grounded, on-the-ground look at how community violence intervention and legal strategies are working in practice. Through guided site visits and practitioner exchanges, attendees will engage directly with frontline leaders, legal advocates, and community-based organizations advancing safety, healing, and prevention in Baltimore.

Participants will be split between between two tracks:

  1. The CVI Practitioner track will meet with legal experts to explore legal infrastructure and the role of attorneys in strengthening community safety efforts. 

  2. The Legal Practitioners track will see community violence intervention work in action and hear directly from frontline practitioners about implementation, challenges, and impact.

These visits are designed to move beyond theory by centering real-world practice, peer learning, and cross-sector connection. Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of what effective, community-rooted safety strategies look like and how legal and policy tools can better support the field.
