Summary

Gun violence is the number one reason children die in the U.S. In big cities, most of these cases come from shootings related to assaults and homicides. There aren't many effective ways right now to prevent kids from either becoming victims or getting involved in gun violence themselves. This study aims to create a video program (Rise Up! Against Violence) for middle schoolers that teaches them about guns and the real-life consequences of violence. The videos will be made by high school students who have personally experienced gun violence, since they may be better able to connect with and influence younger kids. The Rise Up! program will be tested in schools in high-violence communities in Houston and Memphis.
