YOUTH VIOLENCE: A COMMUNITY SOLUTION

Students at Haverhill High School in Massachusetts are learning new ways to curb youth violence through VIP, the Violence Intervention and Prevention program. In addition to pledging to uphold the program's mission of peace, members of VIP give presentations on violence prevention and attend training workshops on conflict resolution, leadership and public speaking.

Rothman has been assessing interventions such as VIP in Haverhill and nearby Methuen as part of a wider community initiative to stem the growth of youth violence.
