Abstract | Using the creative arts, this study examined and illustrates the perspectives of how community factors influence safety and violence. Through the use of an innovative methodology (Visual Voices), the authors analysed the perspectives on safety and violence of 22 African-American youth in Baltimore and Pittsburgh. The group from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, lived in a subsidized housing community and attended an after-school program. The two groups were similar demographically. For both sites, the age eligibility ranged from 8 to 15. The Baltimore sample included five girls and four boys, ages 8 to 14. The Pittsburgh sample included nine girls and four boys, ages 11 to 15 years. |
