Regional Gun Violence Research Consortium

ABOUT THE REGIONAL GUN VIOLENCE RESEARCH CONSORTIUM


The Regional Gun Violence Research Consortium is a coalition of gun violence researchers and practitioners that seeks to inform policymakers and the public by providing evidence-based, data-driven policy recommendations to disrupt the cycle of firearm-involved homicides, suicides, and injuries. The Consortium approaches the study of gun violence with the belief that:

+ Gun violence is a public policy problem.

+ State and local governments are key in the fight to reduce firearm-involved deaths and injuries.

+ We need to better understand the nuances of state law- and policy-making to effectively combat gun violence.
