Best Practices of Youth Violence
Prevention:
A Sourcebook for Community Action
With the homicide rate for youth under the age of 19 averaging 9
deaths a day over the last decade, the CDC's Injury Center announces the release of the 216 page publication, entitled Best
Practices of Youth Violence Prevention: A Sourcebook for Community
Action (Best Practices). Best Practices is the first of its kind
to look at the effectiveness of specific violence prevention practices
in four key areas: parents and families; home visiting; social and
conflict resolution skills; and mentoring.
These programs are drawn from real-world experiences of
professionals and advocates who have successfully worked to prevent
violence among children and adolescents. As a CDC publication, the
sourcebook also documents the science behind each best practice and
offers a comprehensive directory of resources for more information
about programs that have used these practices.
This publication is available free from the NCIPC online
order form.
