We asked researchers, community leaders, and frontline violence prevention professionals, “Why is gun violence a public health issue, and why does this matter?” Their responses shine a light on the causes of gun violence, its disproportionate impact on communities of color, and the health-focused strategies that can solve this crisis.
This video features Dr. Ashley Hink, Associate Professor of Surgery at the Medical University of South Carolina. “Gun violence is no different than a lot of other public health problems - we know its causes and risk factors, and there are ways to mitigate all of these things,” says Dr. Hink.
