Current research supports the importance of quality early childhood
experiences as a critical path to reducing youth violence and creating a
safe school campus. These experiences can also contribute to school
readiness and a successful academic journey. The Attorney General's
Crime and Violence Prevention Center has completed a school violence
prevention multi-media project entitled, "Safe Schools: A New Approach
to Create a Non-Violent Campus." The four CD ROM package is a unique
combination of traditional resources for preparing a comprehensive safe
school plan and a new approach focusing on promoting non-violent
behavior through strength-building.
The concept is based on the
research and experience of Dr. Bruce Perry, MD, PhD of the ChildTrauma
Academy in Texas. Information on the CDs is organized by the core
strength areas of attachment, self-regulation, affiliation, awareness,
tolerance, and respect. The CDs feature interviews, streaming video,
Web links, downloadable documents, research articles, and classroom
exercises for teachers. The package has been distributed to all
California schools and law enforcement agencies. One copy per order.
