Communities Partnering 4 Peace

CORNERS' research and evaluation strategy focuses on assessing the following three key aspects related to CP4P's reach and impact:

1. The ability of CP4P to reach and provide services to individuals most acutely impacted by and involved in gun violence
2. The impact of CP4P services on individual-level participant outcomes, including involvement in gun violence and service use.
3. CP4P's potential impact on gun violence at the community-level.

To understand participants' experiences, the evaluation also incorporates focus groups and semi-structured interviews co-facilitated by CP4P outreach staff.

This research partnership provides a unique opportunity to understand the continued development and evolution of collaborative CVI efforts in Chicago.
