Violence in the Lives of Children

Much of the reporting on violence in children’s lives focuses narrowly on a particular type: child abuse or media violence, gang violence or suicide, dating violence or violent crime. In contrast, this data brief presents a broad overview of the incidence of many types of violence affecting the lives of children and youth. This approach provides a stronger sense of the relative risks for children experiencing different forms of violence, as well as disparities in the overall levels of violence experienced by different groups of children: male and female; black, white, and Hispanic; younger and older.
