3 Making The Case How violence impacts the health and wellbeing of communities Violence is a leading cause of injury, disability and premature death. Violence is a significant disparity, disproportionately affecting young people and people of color. Violence increases the risk of other poor health outcomes.
4 What is Needed? A Comprehensive Public Health Approach to Violence Prevention A Public Health Approach to Violence: Is population-based Works to increase protective factors Attempts to reduce risks Has a focus on prevention
5 A Comprehensive Public Health Approach to Violence Prevention UNITY (Urban Networks to Increase Thriving Youth) through Violence Prevention A national initiative designed to strengthen and support cities in preventing violence before it occurs. Based on the principle that violence is preventable, UNITY provides a comprehensive and sustainable public health approach to violence prevention.
6 Who is UNITY? Lead Partners: Prevention Institute, Harvard School of Public Health, UCLA School of Public Health SCIPRC Supported by: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) & The California Wellness Foundation National Consortium: Over 200 members from cities, national and state orgs, CBOs
7 UNITY Activities Assessment: What do cities need? 7 Peer Network: Connecting cities with each other Capacity Building: Training, tools, consultation City efforts: Highlighting what works Framing: Making the case for preventing violence Urban Agenda: Policies and resources to support urban areas

9 UNITY Assessment An Assessment of Youth Violence Prevention Activities in USA Cities Telephone interviews with key city informants in 15 of the 45 largest U.S. cities. City Mayor Police Chief Public Health Director School Superintendent
10 UNITY Assessment An Assessment of Youth Violence Prevention Activities in USA Cities Findings: Youth violence is a serious issue for cities. Responses are not perceived to be highly effective or adequate Few reported using primary prevention to stop violence before it occurs. Informants lack a shared knowledge of existing youth violence prevention resources available in their city.
11 UNITY Assessment An Assessment of Youth Violence Prevention Activities in USA Cities Findings: Most cities cited a lack of comprehensive strategy. Law enforcement and criminal justice are the most prevalent strategy used in the cities. Public Health Departments are not generally included in city strategies. Cities with the greatest coordinated approach also had the lowest rates of youth violence.
12 The Prevention Continuum Up Front In The Thick Aftermath Approaches that take place BEFORE violence has occurred to prevent initial perpetration or victimization Immediate responses AFTER violence has occurred to deal with the consequences in the short-term Long-term responses AFTER violence to deal with the lasting consequences and treatment interventions
13 UNITY Cities Priority Strategies UP FRONT Positive early care and education Positive social and emotional development Parenting skills Conflict resolution Quality after school programming Youth leadership Social connections in neighborhoods Quality education Economic development
