Abstract
Violence is a major cause of fatal and non-fatal injury among youth in urban communities. The aim of this review is to analyze the structure and characteristics of successful youth violence and injury prevention programs (YVIPPs) and define which aspects of existing programs represent the best practice components for potential widespread replication.We performed a systematic review of existing YVIPPs, particularly in urban areas, to identify best practice components of successful programs. Additionally, we will analyze, identify, explore, and dissect community-initiated interventions that have successfully contributed to a reduction in youth violence. The aim of this review is to give current and future violence prevention practitioners information on how to help reduce and mitigate youth violence.KeywordsYouth ViolenceYouth Violence Prevention ProgramsInjury Prevention ProgramsCommunity-Initiated Violence and Injury InterventionCommunity-Initiated Violence and Injury Prevention ProgramsButty Socioecological ModelCommunity Outreach WorkersBest Practice ComponentsViolence RecoveryViolence Recovery Programs
