VIOLENCE PREVENTION SOURCEBOOK AVAILABLE--FREE

In response to the significant public health issue of youth violence,
CDC now offers "Best Practices of Youth Violence Prevention: A
Sourcebook for Community Action." The sourcebook presents the
best-known strategies for reducing youth violence, garnered from
individuals working in the field.

The first section of "Best Practices" reviews the general principles of
intervention planning, implementation, and evaluation. The main section
details the four key strategies to preventing youth violence: parent and
family-based strategies, home visiting, social and conflict resolution
skills, and mentoring.

"Best Practices" is available through the SafeUSA Web site,
www.cdc.gov/safeusa, or through the SafeUSA Clearinghouse, (888)
252-7751, a vehicle for safety-related information and materials. The
SafeUSA Web site provides information about specific safety-related
topics and links to related Web sites. The SafeUSA Clearinghouse has
information specialists available to answer questions and provide
referrals to callers. It also has taped messages on popular safety
topics, free safety publications, and a fax-on-demand service that gives
access to several SafeUSA fact sheets in Spanish and English.

SafeUSA is an alliance of organizations dedicated to eliminating
unintentional and violent injury and death in America.

I am working on a stress management program for adults in the workplace.
Does anyone have information regarding successful stress management
programs/activities or websites?

Thanks for your help in advance.
