Portsmouth Crime and Gun Violence Prevention Task Force · October 6, 2025

At its Oct. 6, 2025 meeting, the Portsmouth Crime and Gun Violence Prevention Task Force heard a presentation on the Portsmouth United web/app platform from Lee Dear of Mobile Photo Lab and discussed procurement and staffing plans for a consultant to support a community violence interruption (CVI) program. Members asked detailed questions about marketing, youth engagement, content moderation, vetting of community organizations, and data/storage. Staff said the CVI consultant work could begin as early as November 2025 (tentative) with the task-force consulting piece to follow in January 2026 and that the initial CVI rollout will be scaled to four sites rather than eight.
