Upcoming Firearm Injury Prevention
Curriculum Workshops

By working together, we can develop an effective and culturally responsive curriculum that will equip future physicians to address the multifaceted but addressable issue of firearm injury and death.

Workshops registrants can be Faculty or administrators who work in curriculum development or medical education, physicians and medical students who are already champions for or passionate about firearm injury prevention education and care.
