Based on the latest knowledge about early violence prevention and effective teaching strategies, this book describes practical ways for early childhood educators to handle children's aggression and shows how to help children become assertive, nonviolent problem solvers. The book's repertoire of proven approaches includes teaching children how to stand up to aggressors in nonviolent but effective ways, controlling the effects of media violence, teaching social problem-solving skills, and enhancing perspective taking and empathy. The book presents a strong case for dealing quickly and firmly with any incidents of violent behavior and for systematically helping children change aggressive behavior patterns. The 14 chapters of the book are: (1) "Applying What Works"; (2) "Addressing Violence in Real Life"; (3) "Designing the Physical and Programmatic Environment"; (4) "Selecting Materials"; (5) "Structuring Cooperative Activities"; (6) "Responding in Effective Ways"; (7) "Helping Children with Aggressive Behavior Patterns"; (8) "Fostering Social Problem-Solving Skills"; (9) "Encouraging Voluntary Sharing"; (10) "Teaching Assertiveness Skills"; (11) "Enhancing Perspective Taking and Empathy"; (12) "Providing Role Models"; (13) "Controlling Media Affects"; and (14) "Getting Started."

Measuring the social and economic costs of violence can be difficult, and most estimates only consider direct economic effects, such as productivity loss or the use of health care services. Communities and societies feel the effects of violence through loss of social cohesion, financial divestment, and the increased burden on the healthcare and justice systems. Initial estimates show that early violence prevention intervention has economic benefits. The IOM Forum on Global Violence Prevention held a workshop to examine the successes and challenges of calculating direct and indirect costs of violence, as well as the potential cost-effectiveness of intervention.

This series of monographs is dedicated to the increasingly vital area of prevention in healthcare. The works are organized into four categories of preventive practice: education, social competency enhancement, natural caregiving, and systems change. Tragedy should not and need not occur before a school or community begins making efforts to prevent violence. This volume describes the steps taken by Responding In Peaceful and Positive Ways (RIPP), a program developed to promote `non-violence' among students in middle schools. RIPP provides young people with new ways to respond to conflict. Using the acronym RAID, the students are taught four types of non-violent options: Resolve, Avoid, Ignore, and Diffuse. By teaching that they have other choices in any conflict, the idea that `fighting' is a necessary response to an insult or a conflict is dispelled. RIPP also teaches the need for everyone to accept differences, to affirm those with whom they come in contact, and not to engage in `put downs' of others. This empirically validated program has been proven to work in a variety of settings and was designed with real-life experiences in mind. It was originally developed and implemented in collaboration with school administrators in both urban and rural settings.
