This report was crafted by a group of criminal justice system and community leaders who reviewed crime trends and data from ongoing initiatives to address violence, discuss the underlying issues, and devise specific strategies that can be implemented in the short term to reduce the level of violence. The strategies are based on a public health model of violence reduction, strengthening existing and building new community partnerships to reduce risk factors contributing to violence and to strengthen protective factors contributing to prevention of violence.
DataHaven's first publication, in 1995, explored a variety of issues in New Haven and its surrounding region. The full report is very large, but an excerpt of it can be downloaded here. Email DataHaven for the complete file.
