AB This chapter draws out points of comparison and contrast among the three most prominent models addressing youth gun violence connected to gangs and groups: focused deterrence, public health, and the Comprehensive Gang Model. There is considerable overlap in intervention components across them, including being driven by analysis that combines data and ground-level knowledge of local dynamics, meeting young people and others at high risk with trust-building engagement and positive supports, working proactively to interrupt conflicts and other violence transmission vectors, and building broad partnerships to mobilize the community and government support necessary to mitigate gun violence. Despite these continuities, there are important differences, particularly around their relationship to enforcement and suppression. The extant research base provides promising evidence about what these models can achieve in reducing gun violence, but concerns about shortcomings in that research base must be addressed if the research community is to consider any of them “proven.”
