While violent crime has decreased in many cities in the USA, gang-related violence remains a serious problem in impoverished inner city neighborhoods. In Syracuse, New York, gang-related murders and gun shots have topped other New York state cities. Residents of the high-murder neighborhoods suffer trauma similar to those living in civil conflict zones. The Trauma Response Team was established in 2010, in collaboration with the Police Department, health care institutions, and emergency response teams and with the research support of Syracuse University faculty. Since its inception, gang-related homicides and gun shots have decreased in the most severely affected census tracts.
虽然美国许多城市的暴力犯罪有所减少,但与帮派相关的暴力仍是贫困的市中心社区的一个严重问题。在纽约州锡拉丘兹市,与帮派相关的谋杀案和枪击案数量超过了纽约州的其他城市。高谋杀率社区的居民遭受的创伤与生活在冲突地区的人相似。创伤应对小组于2010年成立,与警察局、医疗机构和应急小组合作,并得到锡拉丘兹大学教员的研究支持。自成立以来,受影响最严重的人口普查区中与帮派相关的杀人案和枪击案有所减少。
