The executive director of CeaseFire Illinois, a community-based group that uses a public-health approach to violence reduction, is Tio Hardiman. Since 1999, Hardiman has assisted in directing the program's growth from five neighborhood locations in Chicago to 26 sites across Illinois. Several US communities, including Baltimore and Phoenix, as well as Basra, Iraq, have adopted CeaseFire.
Hardiman pioneered the hiring of highly skilled violence intervention specialists in 2004, who use their close relationships with street organizations' important leaders and decision-makers to resolve disputes. The number of killings in Chicago dropped by 25% that year alone, with 448 homicides, the lowest number recorded in the city since 1965.
