Pathways to Prevention  

Definición

  • Developmental prevention involves intervening early before crime or serious behavioral problems emerge or become entrenched, modifying social arrangements through the organized provision of resources to individuals, families, schools, or communities. Persuasive scientific evidence suggests that this approach works, based primarily on a range of studies that commenced in the United States before the 1980s, such as the Perry Preschool Project (enriched preschool for disadvantaged children) and the Elmira Prenatal/Early Infancy Project (nurse home visiting to support pregnant, single teenage women).
