Tamika Hill, MSW, LCSW, Shares Alarming Youth Violence Statistics and Strategies for Curbing These Trends

By: Get News
School shootings, gang violence, and bullying are among the forms of youth violence

Tamika Hill, MSW, LCSW, founder of T. Hill Consultant, LLC and Certified Clinical Trauma Practitioner, is sharing strategies for overcoming high rates of youth violence across the country.

Statistics from youth.gov indicate that one in five high school students have been bullied at school over the past year. Data also finds that homicide is the third leading cause of death in young people ages 10-24.

According to Ms. Hill, there are various underlying causes for the high rates of youth violence seen across the United States. Some of these root causes include poverty and inequality.

Ms. Hill is a mental health professional who offers dynamic counseling services and workshops for individuals, companies, and educators. She helps clients heal from past trauma and overcome financial anxiety, and she even offers an educator workshop that helps teachers identify and cope with mental health concerns within themselves and with students.

“It will take a collective effort and long-term commitment to address the challenges facing our youth today,” said Ms. Hill. “By coming together and working towards common goals, we can create a better future for all. One day this is the generation that will be taking care of us, so we need to be proactive with helping now.”

This collective effort will need to include conversations between mental health advocates such as Ms. Hill, parents, educators, law enforcement, policymakers, and communities at large. One major step that should be taken, according to Ms. Hill, is investment in early intervention and prevention programs that can help indicate and address issues before they escalate. Some of these programs can include job training, community engagement, mental health support, and more.

In addition, initiatives addressing affordable housing, education, and healthcare can also be implemented to curb youth violence in America.

Ms. Hill is investing in this cause by offering workshops and services designed to boost youth mental health. More information can be found at https://www.thillconsultant.com/.
