Such a great article from NPR and KFF Health News on the history of gun violence research and the leaders in this work. I greatly admire every one of these researchers and am proud to call them colleagues as the field rapidly expands. npr.org/sections/healt…

I'd like to share a recent collab w/ Public Health Post Boston University School of Public Health discussing our ongoing research on gun violence exposure and health. Much more to do but it starts with recognizing gun violence as a key driver of public health inequities in our country. nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…

This new paper describes the process and results of co-developing a theory of change for community violence intervention programs through practitioner-researcher partnerships. Our gratitude to many community leaders in WA who made this possible. #CVI (1/3) journals.lww.com/jtrauma/abstra…

Final presenter of this session is Lauren Magee, also a Regional Gun Violence Research Consortium member. Lauren is presenting on a novel program she has been working on in Indianapolis to provide support to survivors of gun violence. Such interesting and important work! #SAVIR2024

Lauren Magee reports on innovative police-based outreach to survivors of community violence & associated boost in clearance rates for non-fatal shootings (~18% to ~29%). Intriguing findings given abysmal clearance rates & minimal reason to trust police nationwide. #SAVIR2024

There's lots of good news about decreasing homicide rates across the country - this should be (cautiously) celebrated. But it shouldn't distract from the fact that guns are still the #1 cause of death for kids and even survivors face lifelong challenges. npr.org/sections/healt…

What the U.S. Secret Service Boston Field Office with support from the Boston Police Dept. and Mass State Police via the Make-A-Wish America Foundation was really cool. Check out Tashawn King's video! #TikTok tiktok.com/t/ZTLaywcb1/

Active shooter preparedness efforts, including drills, raise a lot of concern, often due to “drills gone wrong” highlighted in the media and practices being conflated. What does the research say? Read our latest review (🆓) in Current Psychiatry Reports: rdcu.be/dFfiH.

O'Neill's Lauren Magee's work on youth violence helps community organizations better understand what's happening locally so they can work together to create lasting change. Read more from Jade Jackson, MBA Candidate with Indianapolis Recorder. bit.ly/44A5Ca8

We are looking for a postdoctoral scholar to come work with us at Indiana University! Please circulate widely. Posting at indiana.peopleadmin.com/postings/24351 Application reviewing starts May 29th and continues til position is filled.

O’Neill's Eric Grommon is always thinking about how he can help solve complex problems through research. His work on justice system policy, practice, and operations also gives students insight into the system and how they can help create positive change. blogs.iu.edu/oneill/2024/06…
