DBS requirement: Enhanced + Children''s Barred List About the Youth Endowment Fund All of us will experience violence at some point in our lives. For many children, it is a daily reality. Each year, tens of children are killed, hundreds are hospitalised, 1 in 5 teenage children are victims and the majority admit to feeling afraid of violence. It scares them when they travel home from school, prevents them from going out and makes the most vulnerable feel like they don''t matter. It is taking lives, traumatising families and dividing communities. It robs potential, progress and hope. But it doesn''t have to be this way. The Youth Endowment Fund believes that no child should be affected by violence. We research violence to understand it; we find, fund and test what works to prevent it; and we are building a movement to end it. It''s critical to our mission that we understand how and why young people become involved in violence. The YEF''s work combines conducting rigorous evaluations and research studies with hearing directly from young people - their individual stories and perspectives. It is also important to us that young people are central to the messages we share ..... full job details .....
