Place Matters: How Neighborhoods Shape Patterns of Gun Violence

The environments in which people live, work and move through their daily lives play an important role in shaping patters of gun violence. From neighborhood structure to infrastructure changes, place can influence both risk and opportunity in ways that are often overlooked in prevention efforts.

Join the Regional Gun Violence Research Consortium at the Rockefeller Institute of Government for a timely discussion on how the built environment and community context intersect with gun violence. This webinar will feature Associate Professor of Public Health Bryce Hruska and Margaret Formica of SUNY Upstate Medical University. They will share insights from their research, including work focused on Syracuse, New York.
