This weeks we speak with Thomas Abt, a research professor at the University of Maryland's Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice. We discuss several key issues: (1) what is community violence? (2) how do we go about addressing community violence? and (3) how do we disseminate research in a way that non-academics can understand?
Thomas is the founding director of the Violence Research Center. You can find him on Twitter @Abt_Thomas.
