The Society for Advancement of Violence and Injury Research (SAVIR) is a professional organization that provides leadership and fosters excellence in the science of violence and injury prevention and care. SAVIR achieves its goals by hosting and promoting collective, educational and scholarly activities, including annual conferences. Every year, SAVIR opens an application call for organizations to host future conferences. Past conferences have been held in New Orleans, Louisiana, Ann Arbor, Michigan, and Cincinnati, Ohio. The 2022 SAVIR conference will be hosted by George Washington University in Washington D.C, March 30-April 1, 2022.

The Injury and Violence Prevention Center is proud to announce that our center has been chosen to host the SAVIR 2023 Annual Conference. The Injury Center was chosen among a list of top centers and organizations around the U.S. 2023 will mark the first time that the SAVIR conference will be held west of the Mississippi, creating the opportunity to highlight injury and violence prevention work done in the Rocky Mountain Region and the Western U.S. With endless opportunities for outdoor recreation, restaurants, family activities, and vibrant nightlife, we are excited to welcome SAVIR members and attendees to Denver, Colorado next spring!
