Resources from the BulletPoints Project
Inside our November 2023 newsletter
In this issue: Our BulletPoints Project has a number of exciting updates to share! This month we hosted a half-day virtual Train the Trainer Workshop on Clinical Firearm Injury Prevention for over 40 medical and mental health educators to teach them how to incorporate firearm injury prevention into their clinical and didactic teaching. Keep an eye out for a repeat of this free continuing education event.
We are continuing our mission with the launch of a comprehensive Educators Toolkit. This toolkit is designed for clinical educators teaching about the prevention of firearm injury and death. The activities and materials are designed to be used with learners of varying backgrounds, including medical, nursing, social work, and psychology students, and can be taught in a wide range of settings, from large lectures to small group discussions.
