What do you think of when you hear/read the word violence? Many thoughts probably come to mind. Violence is a global problem. It occurs on the other side of the world and in our own communities.
Violence is preventable. Education is the first step in helping communities reduce and prevent the risk of violence. Communities and researchers have developed prevention programs to bring awareness to residents on how they can contribute to reducing violence in their communities.
You have been asked to share ideas on how to reduce violence. Select a current event on violence (school bullying, looting, rape, etc.) and in an essay, provide information about the violent event and educate a community on prevention techniques for the chosen violent event. Your essay should include a review of the violent event and prevention techniques.
