AmericanViolence.org was initially supported by NYU's Marron Institute of Urban Management with funding from organizations like Arnold Ventures and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The site offers insights and resources for understanding the distribution and trends of violence, helping stakeholders strategize and evaluate interventions effectively. It aims to serve as a comprehensive and accessible data repository. The project is designed to be a public resource that will make data on violence accessible to public officials, journalists, researchers, and the public at large, allowing users to visualize and analyze trends in violence at multiple geographic levels (neighborhoods and cities) and over different timeframes (month to month, year to year, decade to decade).
