Violence Response Team Gala

The Bon Secours Violence Response Team Gala is making its debut at one of Richmond's most celebrated landmarks — Main Street Station. On Saturday, October 24, 2026, join us in this stunning historic venue for an evening that is bigger, bolder, and more impactful than ever before.

For more than 30 years, the Bon Secours Violence Response Team has been a lifeline for survivors of violence across our region. This year, we're gathering at a venue that matches the magnitude of that mission: Main Street Station — Richmond's premier event destination and a landmark listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1970.

The move to Main Street Station marks a pivotal moment in the gala's history. The iconic venue, with its soaring architecture and expansive Shed space, allows us to welcome more guests, more tables, and ultimately more support for the patients who depend on the VRT every single day. In 2025 alone, the team served 3,603 patients — a number that continues to climb.

Bon Secours is the only health system in Virginia with a forensic nurse on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Funds raised at this year's gala will advance that mission — and fuel the team's ongoing campaign to build a $3 million endowment to protect the VRT's future for generations to come.

With more room than ever before, this year's gala will sell out. Individual tickets, honorary committee seats, and full tables are available now — don't wait.
