Yeah.

When we set out that we were going to do this GVRS model, everyone knew, like, okay, because it's not just about the police.

You have to have the community partners there.

You have to have the moral voice people.

You have to have people in the community that have the standing to go to people and talk to people that no one else can and convince them to agree to take the services and change their life.

In Baltimore, most folks at the time had a different police commissioner.

He's now the deputy mayor in New Orleans.

Mr. Deputy Mayor, how are you?

Michael Harrison.

Only he and I.

thought that the age range would be older.

Everyone else swore us down that we're gonna be, we just need to go work with these, some of these organizations that already exist that have street credibility to work with 18 to 24 year old black men.

We both said, we think it's gonna be a little higher than that.

So through the data, we were right.

It was not 18 to 24 year olds.

It wasn't even 25 to 28 year olds.

It was 30 to 34 year olds.

we actually had to work and build with an organization yet to even get ready to do that work and to build gvrs and folks who want to see how we did this they can see it it's all on a documentary called the body politic you can get that on all your streaming platforms uh we actually had a a good friend of mine who leads the baltimore peace movement and the baltimore community mediation center

go around the city having and starting in the Western conversations with the community about how we were going to build this to do something of this magnitude.

You cannot just go in and drop it into the community.
