Dismantling the Narrative on Gun Ownership - Dr. Cassandra Crifasi
Episode 1
Wednesday, 21 September, 2022

Is it possible to be a gun violence prevention activist and gun owner at the same time? According to Dr. Cassandra Crifasi, Deputy Director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions, the answer is yes. Here at Evidence for Change, we use evidence in order to reduce gun violence and save lives. Today, we go deep — uncovering the inspiration behind the 2020 Summer Youth Institute, her experience collaborating with youth in the GVP movement, and dismantling the narrative on gun ownership. On top of her numerous awards over the years, one being the American Journal of Public Health Editor’s Choice Award for Best Papers of the Year, Cass is an incredible visionary and mentor. I met her at the Summer Youth Institute 2020, and ever since then, she’s been supportive of my gun violence prevention advocacy. The Evidence for Change podcast would not be possible without her.
