Healthy Malden's Youth Violence Prevention
Healthy Malden
Through a grant from the MA Department of Public Health Youth Violence Prevention Program, Healthy Malden is working to achieve knowledge gains among 300-400 Malden youth regarding alternatives to violent behavior. We also strive to help students create youth-generated public relations materials promoting greater community appreciation for youth strengths and contributions. This indirectly affects nearly 1,00o youths connected to Malden with mentoring abilities and leadership and life skills and helps the Youth Violence Prevention Program reach nearly 4,000 youth across the Commonwealth.
The Civil Rights Team SLAM Event in March of 2009 was an evening of artistic expression in the fight against racism, sexism, homophobia, and all other “isms”.
Monthly Social Justice Movie Nights were shown in the High School cafeteria at which a film that depicts issues of injustice and prejudice was followed by a guided discussion on the issues.
The Rock Against Violence Event (R.A.V.E.) by the Civil Rights Team in February 2009 and again on May 30th for grades K-8 were held to promote violence prevention principles. This is a terrific evening of Guitar Hero, Rock Band, and Dance Dance Revolution competitions while learning violence prevention and cessation tactics.
Healthy Malden’s monthly cable show was produced by Malden High School Civil Rights Team members in November, which is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Our guest was Deborah Fallon, Founder and Director of Portal To Hope (PTH) established in 1996 to serve young women, ages fifteen to eighteen, whose lives have been affected by family and/or teen-dating violence.
