MVP is the official podcast of the National Mass Violence Victimization Resource Center, a joint project of the Medical University of South Carolina and the U.S. Office for Victims of Crime. Mass violence events seem to be increasing, and anxiety and fear about being exposed to mass violence is on the upswing. Each month, we consult with leading experts about what mass violence is, its impact on individuals and society, things that communities can do to prepare for mass violence events, resilience in the aftermath of mass violence, and ways that people and communities can recover and rebuild.
