| Individuals interested in learning more about youth violence
can participate in a June 26 DataSpeak Internet and telephone
conference from 2-3 p.m. EDT sponsored by HRSA's Maternal and
Child Health Bureau.
Titled International Perspectives on Youth Violence,
the audio conference will compare trends in youth violence
across different countries.
MCHB's Mary Overpeck, Dr.P.H., and Tonja Nansel, Ph.D., of
the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development
and Lloyd Potter, Ph.D., of the National Injury and Violence
Prevention Resource Network will examine data on youth injury
and violence and discuss the influence of the data on violence
prevention efforts.
DataSpeak conferences are coordinated by the HRSA-funded
Maternal and Child Health Information Resource Center to educate
federal, state and local health professionals and others interested
in data-related MCH topics.
DataSpeak is accessible for participants online or by telephone
