The Violence Project (TVP), a nonprofit dedicated to data-driven violence prevention whose research on mass shootings has been funded by the U.S. Department of Justice, has launched a new online training platform called "Off-Ramp." According to the group, It's the first website dedicated to preventing mass shootings rather than training people to react to them. The Off-Ramp platform is designed to build more exits from this pathway by translating findings from TVP's mass shooter database into tangible, evidence-based violence prevention strategies for individuals, institutions, and society as a whole. Off-Ramp offers a resource database of community mental health and outreach services to support individuals in crisis or individuals worried that someone they know is on the path toward violence; online learning modules in crisis intervention, de-escalation, suicide prevention, and social media safety; and guidance and support for schools, workplaces, and organizations to build collaborative Crisis Response Teams.
