This interim evaluation report presents descriptive, process and outcome findings regarding the Oakland Department of Violence Prevention's (DVP's) school violence intervention and prevention (VIP) teams. School VIP teams consist of three individuals--one life coach, one violence interrupter, and one gender-based-violence specialist--and operate in seven high schools in the Oakland Unified School District (OUSD). Community healing interventions are also available at two of the school sites to support the violence intervention and prevention work. While still in its early implementation stage, the school VIP program shows promise in its work to meet the safety and security needs of Oakland high school students. [This report was funded by the City of Oakland.]
