    AbstractViolence and its consequences are a major issue to be addressed by the health care community. The magnitude and characteristics of the problem cry out for new, creative approaches and provide for some insight into the direction that needs to be taken. Some of the components related to violence are societal in scope and will require long-term strategies well beyond the immediate realm of the health care system. Others provide direction that more clearly present a role for health providers and public health planners. Although there will be no easy answers or solutions to this problem, it is essential that support be developed for experimental efforts. The health community cannot ignore this problem and can in fact make a real contribution to its resolution through prevention, treatment, and research.
