Recovery Legal Care Randomized Trial
(HVIP-MLP Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Programs (HVIPs) affiliated with U.S. trauma centers often focus on individual behavior modification to reduce re-victimization. There is a lack of reproducible evidence that has demonstrated effectiveness, given the exclusion of addressing social and economic risks, often the root cause of violent injury and preventable homicide. This study tests a novel Medical-Legal Partnership that offers legal support to address social and economic risks, reduce perceived stress, and reduce firearm injury, while collaborating with the CFVP Coordinating Center for broad trauma center distribution and public health impact.
