First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at California's program that takes guns away from people who are no longer allowed to own them, such as those convicted of certain crimes or with severe mental illness. Researchers will track 20,000 people to see if the program lowers their risk of future violence or arrests. The goal is to find out if this approach actually makes communities safer.
