On behalf of the Youth Endowment Foundation (YEF), the Campbell Collaboration intends to commission a systematic review of research on the implementation and delivery of focused deterrence.
Focused deterrence is a tertiary prevention strategy that was developed in Boston in the mid-1990s. It recognises that most serious violence is associated with a small group of people who are themselves very likely to be victims of violence, trauma, and extremely challenging circumstances. It attempts to identify the people most likely to be involved in violence and supports them to desist. Focused deterrence is sometimes referred to as ’pulling levers’ strategy. Pulling levers essentially describes an approach that involves clear messaging from authority and community figures about the consequences of violence, including the use of various sanctions if violence continues, matched with social service and community resources to create opportunities for desistance.
