Summary
Gun violence is the leading cause of death for children in the U.S. This study tests a video program called Rise Up! Against Violence for middle schoolers. High school students who have experienced gun violence made the videos to teach younger kids about the real-life consequences of guns and fighting. The program will be tested in schools in high-violence areas of Houston and Memphis with 600 children aged 11 to 15.
