Reimagine Public Safety Act (RPSA) (430 ILCS 69) | ILLINOIS
Firearm violence is a multifaceted challenge that requires a public health approach to stop the cycles of violence in disproportionately impacted communities. The Office of Firearm Violence Prevention (OFVP) was created as a result of the Reimagine Public Safety Act (RPSA) (430 ILCS 69), which was passed by the Illinois General Assembly in 2021. The RPSA is a comprehensive approach to violence prevention in response to the State of Illinois’ heightened experience of loss, harm, and trauma by the hands of firearm violence, especially during the COVID-19 lock down.
