National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center

The National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center (NYVPRC) was established as a central source of information on prevention and intervention programs, publications, research, and statistics on violence committed by and against children and teens. The resource center is a collaboration between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other federal agencies. The resource center provides information on hot topics such as youth violence in schools, youth violence prevention programs, teen suicide, and strategies to foster healthy youth development. The site also includes a section on frequently asked questions about youth violence, and features an extensive collection of links to other sites that offer information on youth violence, as well as tools and technical assistance to prevent violence in our communities.
