She lost her son to gun violence. Now she’s part of a movement credited with Baltimore’s crime drop

Community-led efforts led by credible messenger Rochelle Johnson helped Baltimore cut homicides by roughly 30% this year, building on a historic decline since 2023, city officials said.

  • Rochelle Johnson, a mother of five in Baltimore, works as a violence interrupter to reduce community violence.
  • Her motivation stems from the tragic loss of her 19-year-old son, who was fatally shot in 2013.
  • City leaders credit programs like Johnson's with contributing to a significant drop in homicides in Baltimore in recent years.
