Chicago Gun Violence Research Collaborative

The Chicago Gun Violence Research Collaborative (CGVRC) is a group of academic researchers, community groups, and other stakeholders originally convened in 2016 by Sinai Chicago and the Illinois Public Health Institute in response to high levels of gun violence in Chicago. SUHI leads the CGVRC Fellowship, an annual program in which graduate-level fellows work on projects to identify the root causes and perceptions of gun violence and explore effective prevention strategies.
