What are the three R's of the STOP the Violence Program?

The three R's of the STOP the Violence Program are Recognize, Report, and Reduce. This approach emphasizes the importance of awareness and proactive measures in addressing violence.

Recognizing refers to the ability to identify signs of violence or potential threats early on. This awareness is crucial because it enables individuals to take appropriate action before situations escalate.

Reporting is about ensuring that any incidents or threats are communicated to the proper authorities or support systems, allowing for timely intervention.

Reducing involves taking steps to not only address immediate concerns but also to decrease the overall prevalence of violence through education, prevention strategies, and community engagement.

Together, these components create a comprehensive framework for addressing and preventing violence in communities, making the program an effective tool in promoting safety and awareness.
