Act Against Violence Campaign
Act Against Violence Campaign
To help combat youth violence in America, many of the nation's public broadcasters, along with some of their commercial counterparts, private foundations, community organizations and corporations have formed a powerful alliance.
The "Act Against Violence Campaign," a twoyear effort, will employ TV and radio programming; community and school-based activities; print materials and publications; and computerized online-resources.
The campaign will be launched with a fourhour special hosted by Bill Moyers, What Can We Do About Violence?: A Bill Moyers' Special, premiering on PBS, January 9 from 9 to 11 p.m. EST and continuing January 11.
Chief among the printed materials will be a 20 page Community Resource Guide published by Thirteen/WNET, which will include indepth description of four model violence prevention programs along with detailed contact for 30 more. The station will print and distribute 50,000 copies. The Guide is available at no charge by sending a postcard to:
