As firearm injuries continue to claim lives, especially among our children and teenagers, it's crucial to convene experts, legislators, and advocacy groups to explore effective strategies for reducing these tragic incidents. Join us for the fourth annual Firearm Injury Prevention conference, an essential gathering addressing the pressing public health crisis of firearm injuries in the United States.
This nonpartisan event, held in conjunction with National Gun Violence Awareness Day, aims to foster meaningful dialogue and collaboration. Through expert panels, research presentations, and policy discussions, attendees will gain insights into the latest data-driven approaches to firearm injury prevention. The conference will highlight evidence-based policies, community-led interventions, and advancements in public health strategies designed to reduce firearm-related harm. Additionally, we encourage attendees to wear orange in commemoration of this important day.
Sponsored by the Firearm Injury Prevention and Safety Program at Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy, our goal is to generate actionable recommendations and initiatives to curb this epidemic. Join us as we work towards a safer, healthier future for all.
