abstract="This article summarizes the results from a Rapid Evidence Assessment (REA) to identify effective cross-sector, multi-agency urban youth firearms violence reduction strategies. Of the 129 studies identified through the systematic REA process, published from 1996-2013, 11 eligible studies met the inclusion criteria. Ten of these studies indicated sizable reductions in violence as measured by fatalities, gang-involved homicides, or shootings. Recommendations for violence reduction strategies and implications for future gun violence research are discussed.<p />",
