Chicago Center on Democracy

The Chicago Center for Youth Violence Prevention (CCYVP) brings together researchers, community representatives, practitioners, and policy makers committed to understanding and reducing youth violence in poor, inner-city communities in Chicago—communities with some of the highest rates of youth violence in the country.

We share this academic work with the broader community of citizens, civil society organizations, and policymakers. We do this through convenings, publications, and public engagement.
