New Website Gives Voice to Unheard Stories of Gun Violence

The Gun Violence Project is a community-academic collaboration that aims to empower community members, including youth, in sharing their often unheard stories of gun violence. These narratives will be mapped along with public health data to allow diverse audiences and communities to more deeply understand the impact of the many forms of gun violence in our neighborhoods.

Dr. Kaija Zusevics, Center Researcher supports the research team behind the Gun Violence Project.
