This article provides an overview of a treatment approach, Multisystemic Therapy (MST), that has demonstrated long term reductions in criminal activity and violence among youth at high risk for perpetrating violence. Importantly, central aspects of MST are consistent with the recent public health agenda of violence prevention in the United States. Moreover, as demonstrated from the findings of controlled clinical trials evaluating MST with serious juvenile offenders, the viability of the public health approach is supported.
