U.S. Surgeon General David Satcher released a report today on youth violence, stating that while the number of arrests is down, violence among young people is not. The report focused on what scientific research has to say about the causes of youth violence. It also identified some of the most successful methods of violence prevention. NPR's Joanne Silberner has the story. (4:00) www.surgeongeneral.gov/library/youthviolence/
