that makes the network legible across cities.

Coordination Method
The Cross-Neighborhood Method
Organizations inside a chapter share information, coordinate, and run referrals
across neighborhood lines — so a person is served regardless of which door they
reach first.

Warm Handoffs
Person-to-person introductions across neighborhoods — never a dropped referral. The coordinator stays with the person through the transfer.
Neighborhood Influencers
Trusted figures trained to extend reach and surface needs early — before a moment becomes a crisis. The connective tissue of the chapter.
Living Service Map
A live inventory of partner organizations, services, and capacity inside the chapter. The directory that makes coordination possible and visible to funders.
Clarity
What Build Peace is — and is not
Build Peace is…
A service framework. A common language. A set of standards that makes CVI work legible, coordinated, and funder-ready across chapters.
Build Peace is not…
A program. A curriculum. A replacement for the organizations already doing the work. It is the structure that connects them and makes the whole greater than the sum of its parts.
