On Dec. 2 we hosted Jason Corburn and DeVone Boggan to present on their new book, Advancing Peace: Ending Urban Gun Violence Through the Power of Redemptive Love. The authors talked about their research into the Advance Peace gun violence prevention program operating in about a dozen cities around the country, and based in Richmond, CA. They revealed some statistics and shared stories about how a community-based approach to reducing gun violence is more effective than law enforcement. Boggan is the Executive Director of Advance Peace, and Corburn is a UC Berkeley Professor in City and Regional Planning, and the School of Public Health.
