Community-based Partnership's Efficacy in Decreasing Injury Rates At Night in Dallas, TX

This study is looking at whether the 24HourDallas Copper Star Certification and Good Neighbor initiative can help reduce injuries and violence that happen at night in Dallas, Texas. These initiatives aim to lower drunk driving, violence against women, human trafficking, and general injuries related to alcohol use between 6 PM and 6 AM. The study will measure success by looking at the number of emergency department (ED) visits, sexual assaults, and ED visits due to assault injuries over 12 hours after these initiatives are put in place. You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 85 years old, and your injury (like an assault, car crash, or bicycle accident) happened in Dallas between 6 PM and 6 AM. The current status of this study is unclear.
