Philadelphia's Division of Safe Neighborhoods (DSN) prioritizes public safety within our communities, with a focus on ending gun violence in our city once and for all. DSN recognizes the significant influence of trauma on the continuous cycle of gun violence. Our objective is to reduce and end gun violence through a comprehensive strategy that tackles the root causes and offers social services to Philadelphians in need. DSN priorities social support services grounded in community engagement. By supporting and expanding upon local innovations that enhance public safety in Philadelphia and building upon evidence and place-based initiatives, DSN aims to create a safe and resilient Philadelphia, equipped with the essential resources for achievement.
