New! A Translation of the AJPM ACE Community Mobilization special issue for Community and Policymakers
Dr. Greg Mark and Dr. Bob Cohen, Guest Editors of the ACE Community Mobilization special issue which came out in 2008 in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, have compiled a set of translation documents which summarize each of the main articles of the special issue. They are available for download here and can be disseminated broadly to interested parties such as policymakers or community organizations.
New! Experts' Tips - SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS, SAFE LIVES
These tips were developed by the Philadelphia Collaborative Violence Prevention Center (PCVPC) with input from several of the ACEs/UPACEs. They can be found on the CDC STRYVE (Striving to Reduce Youth Violence Everywhere) website, or on the PCVPC website.
In 2008, the Philadelphia Collaborative Violence Prevention Center (PCVPC) began to craft evidence-based tips for non-academic, non-research audiences that could be used to prevent violence and build community. The goal of these tips was to provide tangible actions, rooted in research evidence, which could be adopted to improve lives in our partner communities and neighborhoods. We solicited suggestions for tips from both our Center’s academic members and community partners. The proposed tips were reviewed by community and academic partners for relevance and appropriateness of content and language. We then reviewed the existing literature to obtain documentation of the scientific evidence supporting each tip. To date, we have developed 57 Safe Neighborhood Tips which have been disseminated through a variety of venues including community events, websites, and bookmarks targeted to youth. Under the auspices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Academic Centers of Excellence (ACE) on Youth Violence Prevention’s Strategic Action Plan, a unique collaboration of academic and community partners from multiple ACEs led to an iterative vetting process. Conducted from 2009-2010, the vetting process allowed for participants to add, enhance, and evaluate the evidence supporting each tip based on their expertise, as well as gather ideas for dissemination.
