Violent Death Data
Violence, whether from assault or self-inflicted, takes the lives of more
than five North
Carolinians every day (2020).
The
North Carolina Violent Death Reporting System (NC-VDRS)
provides detailed information on
violent deaths to not only understand the “who, when, where, and how”
but also “why” these
deaths occurred. These surveillance data can improve understanding of
the causes and
circumstances of violent deaths to inform and tailor violence prevention
in the state.
After viewing this page, if you find yourself needing more information on violent deaths in North
Carolina, please review the Injury and Violence Prevention Branch data
request policies and procedures for steps on how to make a custom data request.
