Download or read book Preventing Youth Violence in a Multicultural Society written by Nancy Guerra and published by APA Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Preventing Youth Violence in a Multicultural Society" highlights the importance of creating culturally compatible interventions to stop violence among the youngest members of diverse populations. Chapters explore how ethnicity and culture can increase or decrease risk for violence among youth depending on contextual factors such as a disadvantaged upbringing, exposure to trauma, and acculturation status. Authors focus on the interaction between environmental conditions and the individual risk factors that foster youth violence. They begin by examining risk factors common to all groups of youth, such as feeling alienated from mainstream culture and searching for self-identity, and then focus on risk, resilience, and distinguishing factors among particular racial and ethnic groups, including Latino, African American, Asian American, Pacific Islander, American Indian, and White youth. The authors recommend interventions tailored to each group as well as advice on how to incorporate cultural competence into more general youth violence prevention programs. The social-ecological approach taken in this volume emphasizes the learned nature of aggression and violence, and many of the recommended interventions involve changing the context in which violence is taught, therefore truly encouraging long-term violence prevention. This practical, empirically supported book serves as an important resource to all mental health practitioners working in the field of youth violence.

Book excerpt: Every time a young person is harmed by violence, our nation's future strength and growth are jeopardised. We are losing our next generation of young people -- our future community builders and leaders -- to homicide at an alarming rate.

When the opportunities of our young people are curtailed by youth violence, we all suffer the negative and long-lasting consequences. Preventing Youth Violence: Opportunities for Action by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is designed to help communities use what is known about youth violence and put in place prevention approaches that work. The information provided in this book will help communities learn more about the causes and impact of youth violence and identify actions each of us can take to stop youth violence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second edition of a pioneering book (1999) in addressing the continuum of warning signs and what can be done to avert violent outbursts by young people. The title "before it begins" emphasizes that prevention is best addressed in the early years of the child's life. There are solutions to the horrors: mass shootings, random stabbings, beatings, severe verbal denigration, domestic abuse, which all lead to tragic aftermaths such as anger, depression, PTSD, shame, self-mutilation, and self-hatred. Dr. Flannery makes the reader understand the multiple causes and reasons for these acts and how to identify the warning signs. Society is not helpless or hopeless. Our children must not become an endangered species.
