Meeting the Moment to Prevent Violence: How Cross-Sector Collaborators Are Leading the Way

What happens when hospitals start treating violence as preventable? Across the country, health systems are pioneering models that connect clinical care to community violence intervention (CVI), and the early evidence is compelling.
