AI-Summary
What this Trial Is About
This study will describe, estimate, and explore the effectiveness of community-centered safety models (CCSMs)-including co-response, alternative response, and community violence intervention modalities-implemented across U.S. municipalities to prevent community violence among youth and young adults (YYA). Specifically, the investigators will (1) describe CCSM implementation using implementation-science methods, (2) estimate CCSMs' impacts on community-violence outcomes using quasi-experimental methods, and (3) explore operational and contextual factors associated with stronger or weaker effects.

Who Can Participate
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if you...
- The program is a single, identifiable community-centered safety model implemented at the city or county level
- Public or official documentation exists specifying the program start date, coverage area, operating hours, staffing, eligibility, and core activities
- At least 24 months of data are available before program implementation
- At least 12 months of data are available after program implementation
- Primary outcomes (fatal and nonfatal violent injury) and at least one secondary justice outcome are available at the jurisdiction level
- Geographic boundaries are stable with consistent reporting practices and no major breaks that affect data quality
- Jurisdiction characteristics and data timing are compatible with synthetic control design for analysis
You will not qualify if you...
- Programs that are short-lived pilots or have unclear or multiple modalities where treatment timing or content cannot be clearly defined
- Major data discontinuities such as boundary changes, reporting suspensions, coding changes, or data gaps that cannot be corrected
- Concurrent major citywide initiatives that coincide with the program start and make analysis infeasible
- Less than 24 months of data available before program implementation
- Outcomes data available only at spatial or temporal units that cannot be aligned with other sites or donors
