Review # 1 was written on 2017-08-08 00:00:00 Rick Lam Comprehensive review of studies that have attempted to measure the efficacy of violent crime prevention programs at the individual, family, and school/community levels.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-02-15 00:00:00 Matt Frankforter A long and very detailed account of research on children and crime, including information on effective and ineffective interventions. It is a complex issue but a child's impulsive personality, parental neglect, inexperienced parenting, lack of a supportive school environment and criminal peers all contribute. Many family and community prevention programs can make a huge difference in changing the outcome. A fascinating and worthwhile read.
