Office Violence Prevention Documents

This plan provides a road map on how the NC Office of Violence Prevention will work in collaboration with a host of partners to advance our state's progress towards reducing the immediate and long-term impacts of violence happening within local communities.

This document was developed by North Carolina public safety and public health officials working in collaboration with the North Carolina Office of Strategic Partnerships.

North Carolina views violence, including firearm violence, as both a public safety and a public health issue.

Operating within the Department of Public Safety and in close partnership with the Department of Health and Human Services, OVP advocates for a comprehensive, public health-informed approach to violence prevention.
