The primary objective of the Youth Violence Prevention Program
is to enhance Colorado’s capacity to address child and
adolescent health through violence prevention. A Violence
Prevention Advisory Group (VPAG), consisting of nationally known
violence prevention experts, state agency
leaders, and members of private and
nonprofit prevention groups, has been
created to work with the CDPHE on the
development of a state needs and resources
assessment, followed by the construction of
a state-wide strategic plan.
