Gun Violence Data Analysis

NICJR has worked with jurisdictions throughout the US to develop and implement effective gun violence reduction strategies. This work very often begins with either a Gun Violence Problem Analysis or a Gun Violence Assessment.

The Gun Violence Problem Analysis uses detailed data provided by a jurisdiction to examine fatal and non-fatal shootings in the past 12–24 months. This analysis identifies the specific nature of gun violence in the jurisdiction and the unique characteristics of groups and individuals at highest risk of being involved in gun violence, equipping the site to strategically focus interventions.

The Gun Violence Assessment offers a high-level overview of a jurisdiction’s gun violence problem through analysis of publicly available data on the jurisdiction’s fatal and non-fatal shootings in the past 12–24 months, equipping the site to strategically focus interventions.
