Abstract: The National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS) collects information for surveillance to monitor the occurrence of violent deaths in the U.S. at the national, state, and local levels. Data is used to understand magnitude, trends, and characteristics of violent death and what factors protect people or put them at risk for experiencing violence. This revision includes 1) updates to the web-based system to improve performance, functionality, and accessibility, 2) new variables, 3) addition of a School Associated Violent Death (SAVD) module to prepare for discontinuation of OMB No. 0920-0604, and 4) addition of a Public Safety Officer suicide module.
