abstract="Group Violence Interventions (GVIs) combine a focused deterrence law enforcement approach with community mobilization and social services. The current study  qualitatively examines Project Longevity, Connecticut's largest GVI initiative, to  contribute to the limited literature on implementation of gun violence reduction  strategies. Relying on interviews with 24 of Project Longevity law enforcement and  non-law enforcement partners, we explore the establishment of interagency  collaboration, which was viewed by study participants as the most pressing  implementation challenge of Project Longevity. Our case study results offer  important lessons to practitioners responsible for implementing GVI strategies.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
