Chicago Gun Violence Statistics (2022)
Changing our city and making a radical decline in violence is within our grasp. However, lasting change must come through unity, vigilance, and love. Through advocacy, street outreach, positive community interaction, counseling, workshops, and gun violence prevention efforts, we can help our communities fight against this epidemic.
Why does this matter? Gun violence continues to have an impact on everything from safety to the economy. It continues to ruin lives and the Chicago gun violence statistics don't lie... they are not good.
But we can take a stand today, together. Let's create, support, share, and implement real and lasting SOLUTIONS and RESOURCES.
