Abstract
A six-module curriculum on youth violence prevention, The Epidemiology and Prevention of Intentional Injury, was developed for inclusion in a Virginia Commonwealth University Department of Epidemiology and Community Health graduate course for public health students. The content of the curriculum was determined by reviewing key literature and the consensus group reports of experts in the area of youth violence prevention and prevention research more generally. A rationale of course content related to youth violence prevention and an overview of course content, objectives, required reading, and assignments are provided. Suggestions are made for possible adaptation of this youth violence prevention curriculum into public health courses other than intentional injury.
