ABOUT US
Hello, my name is Tiona Jones and I have a son named Jayden Jones who was affected by gun violence at an early age and we're here to share a short story to the world that's deeply personal to us.
In November of 2018, Jayden lost his father to gun violence. Just two years later, in December 2020, he suffered another devastating loss when his uncle, another pillar in his life was also killed by gun violence. It was a heartbreaking time-one filled with grief, confusion, and pain.
But in the mist of that darkness, we were blessed with support. Family, friends, and even strangers stood beside us, helping us heal one day at a time. Their kindness made all the difference.
And now, it's our time. We're committed to giving back-to supporting others who are walking a similar path, but may not have the same kind of help. No one should have to go through something like this alone.
Through love, community, and action, we believe healing is possible-and we're here to be apart of that healing for others.
The Voice Against Gun Violence is a nonprofit organization focused on reducing gun violence and saving lives through advocacy, education, and community empowerment.
MISSION
Our mission is to extend compassion and assistance to children and families who've lost a loved one to gun violence. We work to support survivors, and affected communities, and foster a culture of safety and responsibility. By partnering with local leaders and concerned citizens, we strive to build a future where every person can live free from the threat of gun violence.
VISION
Our multi-service organization serves as a home for hosting and attending community events to spread awareness. Our vision is to foster a safe place to overcome obstacles together. While we can never fill the void of losing a loved one, we are dedicated to being a pillar of support during and following.
