The American Public Health Association (APHA) chose The Center for Violence Prevention as a 2021 ‘APHA Thought Leader.’ Throughout the 2021 APHA Annual Meeting, the Center’s work was showcased in a short film and shared with networks of 500,000 people.

With the emergence of COVID-19, there has never been a more crucial time for sharing best practices in public health research and education or the significance of collaborations across hospitals, public health agencies, research institutions, and communities.
