Actually thoooooo......we need to stop ya'll in your tracks because there is an abundance of misinformation around CVI (community violence intervention). But no worries, HCTC is here (with Carebear) to redirect the path towards understanding! Let’s check-in with our first myth-busting episode in this series!

Care Bear's Weekend Challenge: Do one act of kindness this weekend. It could be checking in on a friend, helping a neighbor, or simply sharing a few encouraging words. Small acts of kindness can make a big difference. How will you spread kindness this weekend?

Today we honor the people who show up for others, even when it's hard, even when no one's watching. 🌍

Our team walks alongside youth and families through some of their hardest moments, offering support, safety, and hope when it's needed most. That's humanitarian work too, and it happens right here in Hartford.

On World Humanitarian Day, we're grateful for every mentor, care manager, and advocate who shows up for our community every single day.

The formula for a safer Hartford isn't complicated: community + youth mentors + care managers + Care Bear. Add it up.

No matter how you run the numbers, it always comes back to the same thing: people showing up for people. That's what safety actually looks like in Hartford, and that's the work we get to do every day.

This summer, we partnered with Project Unloaded to have our students work on a gun violence prevention campaign — challenging the myth that owning or carrying a gun makes you safer. These young people aren't just learning about the issue, they're helping shape how their generation talks about it. Real voices, real perspective, real change. Because changing the culture starts with changing the conversation. Swipe to hear from our students.

We love hearing things like this! A heartwarming text to one of our Care Managers is always so rewarding. Sometimes, the impact of CVI work isn't immediately tangible, and can sometimes feel like we're not doing enough, so words of affirmation is definitely our love language!
