Violence Prevention

Coordinated Community Response (CCR) refers to community-wide efforts to bring together relevant stakeholders to address complex social problems, such as intimate partner violence, sexual assault, child abuse, and substance abuse. However, there is still little scholarly work detailing this application; this text is the first to address this gap in understanding by applying lessons from successful uses of CCR in relation to intimate partner violence to violence in general. Intended for a multidisciplinary audience, this text is an important reference for students and practitioners of criminal justice, public health, social work, psychology, sociology, and other related disciplines.
