Stop The Violence

Gun violence has taken too many Bermuda lives.
But together, we can protect our youth, uplift our
communities, and choose peace over pain. This
movement is about action, healing, and hope.

Let's come together!​

Gun violence has taken sons, daughters, friends, and future leaders from us. But hope is not lost. We are raising awareness, sharing real stories, and providing pathways to peace — because healing begins when we come together.

Lives lost in Bermuda since 2006 to gun- and weapon-related violence.

At the heart of our mission is a commitment to youth empowerment, mental health awareness, and social equity. Key pillars in breaking the cycle of violence. Guided by the National Violence Reduction Strategy, we recognize that issues like poverty, educational barriers, and unaddressed trauma fuel a system where violence thrives. 

 

As part of the Ministry of National Security’s Violence Reduction Strategy, the STOP THE VIOLENCE CAMPAIGN engages the community, amplifies voices, and spotlights programs addressing the root causes of gang violence.

Our Campaigns

We believe in the power of community-led change. Our campaigns bring people together to share stories, challenge stigma, and drive real solutions for a safer Bermuda. Explore our latest initiatives and see how you can be part of the movement.
