Healing the New Orleans community through survivor care and advocacy Silence Is Violence helps New Orleanians to access care agency and healing in the aftermath of violence. We help survivors of violence and families who have lost loved ones with everything from applying to the states Victims Assistance Fund to finding safe temporary housing to making funeral arrangements. An assigned case manager works with the client as they navigate police investigations and trials leveraging SIVs relationships with detectives and prosecutors to protect and advocate for the needs and interests of the client. Clients are provided evidencebased counseling free of cost or given referrals to trained professionals who can help navigate the grieving process with an eye towards maintaining stability and finding resilience in the most difficult moments.
