Breaking the cycle of violence, restoring lives
At Hunt's Consulting Inc., we believe that everyone deserves a chance to break free from the cycle of violence and build a safer, more stable future. Working alongside local law enforcement, social services, and community organizations, we help individuals leave violent groups and regain control of their lives. From securing employment and restoring driver's licenses to supporting child support payments and organizing community healing events, including funerals, we provide the resources and guidance needed for lasting change. Through intervention, support, and opportunity, we empower individuals to choose a path of safety, security, and hope for themselves and their families.

We strive every day toward a community free from the isolating and destructive force of gun violence. Through open communication, proactive strategies, and a partnership between social service agencies, community members, and law enforcement, we can reduce the damaging effects of violent crime in our community.
We practice restorative justice, looking to not only assist in the healing process of victims’ families, but also to prevent the next atrocity from occurring. We are at the scene, we are on neighbors’ doorsteps, and we are preventing the next shooting through our fast-paced and need-centric approach.
As members of the South Bend, Mishawaka, and Northern Indiana/Southwestern Michigan communities, we seek to stand in solidarity with everyone affected by gun violence, and to support anyone in need.


At GVI Outreach, we envision a world where every individual has the resources to thrive. We work tirelessly to bridge the gaps in access to education and support.

I have spent my career providing services to those overlooked and underserved members of our community. At Group Violence Intervention, my job is to assist individuals with criminal backgrounds, as well as those who have been directly affected by violent crime. I often find my clients need assistance with job training, job placement or education. They often face multiple barriers to employment. While there is not a one-size-fits-all approach, I hope you can benefit by learning about some of the resources that I recommend to my clients.
