Abstract Firearm violence continues to substantially increase, yet medical education is largely devoid of firearm injury prevention efforts. We evaluated reactions to Gun Violence Prevention Week (GVPW) sessions to initiate a longitudinal curriculum. All 280 participants were invited to evaluate GVPW through post-session surveys and 158 responded; 77% (124/158) were medical students. One hundred nine participants reported no prior training. Themes from open-ended questions confirmed GVPW significance by noting importance of (1) advocacy/community, (2) personal narratives, and (3) skill-based strategies. Participants expressed need for further training. Future directions include required firearm violence prevention training for all medical students.
