The Consortium for Risked-Based Firearm Policy
 
 

HELLO, CONSORTIUM MEMBERS AND FRIENDS OF THE CONSORTIUM,

 

 

In order to share the good work you have been doing, we are sending out a monthly update with new studies, projects, and articles that our Consortium members are working on. Please feel free to send us any recently published studies or projects throughout the month, and we will compile and distribute to the group.

 

In case you missed it, the Consortium recently released a report in September titled “Breaking through Barriers: The Emerging Role of Healthcare Provider Training Programs in Firearm Suicide Prevention.” Aimed at those who develop curricula for, teach, or practice in healthcare fields, this report highlights the need for additional training on lethal means safety counseling and encourages programs to incorporate such training into their curricula.

 

As usual, don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or ideas.
