flag Prime Minister Andrew Holness urged Jamaican churches to actively combat violence by offering counseling, mentorship, and gang diversion programs, following a 31-year low in murders—fewer than 700 in 2025, with the rate near the regional average of 15 per 100,000. flag Speaking at the National Day of Prayer, he emphasized that reducing crime requires more than policing, calling for community engagement, family-centered policies, and spiritual support to steer at-risk youth away from gangs and violence.
