In today's episode, I speak with Rob Gore MD, an emergency medicine physician and founder of KAVI the Kings Against Violence Initiative. We discuss insights from his book, Treating Violence, and his approach to preventing violence through trauma-informed care and community engagement.

His work is a great example of #healthcaredesign that is human centered and brings the end user to the table to create solutions.
