A Youth Delinquency Prevention and Intervention Programming Agency
The Evening Reporting and Activity Center is a community-based diversion and prevention initiative serving Baton Rouge’s 70805 ZIP code—a historically underserved and disinvested area.
ERAC provides youth with hands-on environmental justice training in partnership with SUAg’s department, focusing on:
We also engage families and the broader community through nutrition and gardening workshops. To help fight fresh food insecurity in 70805, ERAC offers free weekly produce through a community pantry.
The DVI program addresses this emerging and under-acknowledged problem at its source—online. By combining the power of artificial intelligence (AI) with grassroots community engagement, DVI identifies and de-escalates online disputes before they lead to harm. Our program does not wait until violence has occurred—it intervenes in real time, offering resources, mediation, and mentorship to those involved in digital altercations.
Your support empowers us to provide life-changing programs like Diversion House, our System-Impacted Youth Ambassador Program, and Digital Violence Interruption efforts. Every dollar helps us continue the work of healing, prevention, and restoration in underserved communities.
Your gift—big or small—brings us closer to a safer, more compassionate world.
Together, we can show that Someone Always Cares.
