Today, many states are mandating that teachers and administrators take courses or workshops in violence prevention. This hands-on book offers easy-to-follow guidance for implementing violence prevention strategies in schools and classrooms. The author weaves in case study examples from personal experience to address these issues. Chapters are structured by the PEACE approach: Personalize the experience of violence, Examine experiences of students in the school, Advocate for students based on their needs, Choose and implement programs components, and Evaluate effectiveness. The PEACE approach will provide a framework that can make sense within any school environment—from alternative to suburban—and allow educators to tailor programs that will work for them given the needs of their students. Ideas for workshops are also included. Will interest pre-service and in-service teachers and administrators and researchers.
