Focused solely on helping our community and reducing the prevalence of gun violence in gangs, together, we help inform better decisions and safer life choices within our most vulnerable communities. We work with our brothers and sisters in gangs to help where it matters most.

Saving Lives

Meet Nuri Mohammed, Executive Director, Advance Peace San Joaquin

It’s time to change.

And it’s been time to change for quite a while. The news of retaliatory and cyclical gun violence is being tuned out, but it doesn’t mean it is not happening around us.

That’s where Advance Peace San Joaquin comes in. Twenty-four hours a day, three hundred sixty-five days a year, our team works to insert nonviolent strategies into our community’s mindset. We meet people at the source of their conflict and demonstrate peaceful solutions to violent problems. We build pathways for a fulfilling life of opportunities for those who were born into adverse situations or find themselves in situations where gun violence is the only way.

At Advance Peace, our job is simple – save lives, save our community.

San Joaquin County is a community that deserves peace. And we are here to advance that peace.
