“ Participants shared their perspectives around the intersectionality of gun violence, how to craft successful community-based violence interventions, and the importance of survivor-led and victim-centered policymaking in the community violence prevention space. ”

“ Ambassador Rice and Senior Advisor Richmond expressed gratitude for the participants’ central role in elevating the issue of gun violence as a public health crisis and ensuring that youth, in particular Black and Brown young people, are at the tables where the violence prevention policies impacting their communities are created. ”
