In this profile, Dr. Theresa Armstead behavioral scientist in the Division of Violence Prevention at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)and Wendi L. Siebold, President and Senior Research Associate at Strategic Prevention Solutions share their expertise and experience in evaluating violence prevention at a community-level. Community level indicators look beyond individual behavior changes to describe changes within the community environment that have the potential to shape outcomes for the population as a whole. This evaluation method falls in line with movement in the violence prevention field to consider and influence factors at the community and societal levels of the social-ecological model. It also aligns with the field’s interest in addressing factors across many forms of violence, marked in part by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s strategic direction toward connecting the dots between sexual, domestic and other forms of violence.
