We will work with up to six pilot communities to come to consensus on actions and policies that address gun violence against youth in their communities. The solutions explored above will be a critical jumping off point. The selected communities will represent different states and a mix of urban, suburban, and rural contexts. We will facilitate a dialogue in communities that have neighboring Republican and Democratic house districts. These dialogues will include the whole system, including youth, parents, local advocates for and against guns, religious leaders, local government, school district, state government, and federal government representatives. After six months, each pilot community will hold a press conference indicating what commitments can be made at the individual, local, state, and federal levels. United Politics’ community facilitators have deep experience facilitating contentious political dialogues and will use a shared method, primarily developed by the project director, Jacob Bornstein, and project advisor, Mark Gerzon.
