Community and Organization Partners
IPRCE is dedicated to promoting injury and violence prevention through genuine partnerships with community leaders across Metro Atlanta. By engaging Metro-Atlanta-based organizations with vested interests and expertise in preventing violence and injury among the communities impacted, we aim to influence the development of infrastructure and relationships that eliminate inequities in injury and violence.
Our extensive network of partners, representing state, regional, and local organizations and universities, is crucial to our mission. During task force and stakeholder meetings, these partners provide invaluable input on our strategic plan, including research, intervention, and outreach strategies.
Our partners are active participants on IPRCE task forces and serve as vital resources to the community. We encourage you to explore their websites for additional education, research, and program resources and information. Together, we can build a safer, more equitable community.
“Gun violence is an epidemic. It is also 100% preventable if we invest in public health frameworks and community-driven solutions. The IVYY Project, a hospital-based violence intervention program (HVIP), is proud to partner with The Injury Prevention Research Center at Emory to champion proven public health approaches to preventing gun violence so that everyone in our communities can live to pursue their dreams."
"IPRCE is a powerhouse of public health and injury prevention expertise and Shepherd Center is deeply appreciative to have partnered all these years with them. The work that we all do intersects beautifully through our joint task teams at IPRCE and The Governor's Office of Highway Safety. We could not do this work alone and greatly appreciate our partnership in making our communities safer."
"My experience in working with IPRCE has been fantastic! I value the ongoing collaboration opportunities and the incredible network of engaged researchers, practitioners, and colleagues who bring commitment and expertise to this group."
