Abstract

Interpersonal violence can be categorized into youth violence, childhood maltreatment, intimate partner violence, elder abuse, or sexual violence. Just as there are several different victims of interpersonal violence, there are various different community services and prevention programs for each particular type of interpersonal violence. This article reviews the literature on community services and prevention available for all victims of interpersonal violence, and examines the literature on whether these programs are effective.
