About #CVE

2/ “Countering Violent Extremism” or CVE is an Islamophobic program created by the Department of Homeland Security to justify increased surveillance of Muslim communities, and therefore increase criminalization.
3/ CVE infiltrates Muslim communities disguised as “mental health support” and “social services” through K-12 school programs and partnerships with universities, organizations, and mosques/religious institutions.

CVE often takes the shape of grant money.
