Family and Consumer Sciences Educators Can Play Significant Roles in Curbing School Violence [and] STOP the Violence.
Lovell, Martha Karen; Richardson, Bernice; Davis, Collie M.
Journal of Family and Consumer Sciences: From Research to Practice, v93 n1 p24-26,27-29 2001
Lovell and Richardson discuss how, through the family and consumer sciences curriculum, preventing acts of school violence can be presented to students as early as the sixth grade. They suggest that incidents of school and family violence can be reduced by teaching relationship skills. Davis describes STOP the Violence, a program that uses peer education to reduce youth violence. (JOW)
