A Brief Overview
Firearms are now the leading cause of death among American youth, and this project will adapt, implement, and evaluate an evidence-based firearm safety intervention via a pragmatic cluster randomized clinical trial at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. This work is on the cutting edge of firearm injury prevention, implementation science, and health equity, with important potential to impact public health here in Philadelphia and nationally. The Clinical Research Coordinator will provide overall daily management of the research project in collaboration with the Project Manager and Principal Investigator.
