USA. San Bruno, CA. 2013. Classroom at San Bruno County Jail. The Resolve to Stop the Violence Project (RSVP) is an intensive program that uses peer pressure and empathy to force violent men to confront what violence has done to their lives and the lives of their families and their victims. In San Francisco where it has been running for 10 years now, 87 percent of inmates who were in the program have not returned to violent crime.
