Briefing
Report:What works: Preventing children and young people from becoming involved in violence.
This briefing was an interim resource, which has now been replaced by the YEF Toolkit. While we were working on detailed evidence resources, we created the briefing to provide an interim summary of what the evidence says about how effective different approaches are at preventing children from becoming involved in violence. Since it was published, we’ve produced the YEF Toolkit, which provides fully accessible summaries of the best available research based on a comprehensive and systematic approach to the evidence.
