  1. The Isabel and Michael Mondavi FoundationNapa, CA 2025

    This charity works to end violence and save lives. The Alive & Free Prescription works to change beliefs, attitudes, values and actions that promote violence. Alive & Free identifies and addresses Risk Factors - the actions that put young people at risk of violence - and the Commandments of Violence - symptomatic thinking that puts them at risk. The Prescription then counters them with the Rules for Living that promote positive lifestyle choices to mitigate against the onset of the disease of violence.
