Student Training
Our 2-hour program is designed for school-age children 7th through
12th grade. This anti-gang message is presented in a clear youthful
present day lecture. Utilizing video and a PowerPoint presentation,
this program is direct and to the point and visually stimulating.
Staff Training
We provide
excellent in-service training in 2, 4 or 8-hour blocks. These
presentations are focused towards campus supervisors/security,
teachers, school administrators, counselors, school resource
officers, bus drivers, custodians and all others who may deal with
juveniles at risk or involved in gangs in an educational setting.
Input from guidance counselors, school nurses and psychologists are
key in these discussions and lectures. Their unique interaction of
theory in these discussions involving violence prevention is
twofold. First, their professional consideration and operating
assumptions about how youth violence and associated antisocial
behavior develop within our schools is dearly needed. Additionally,
how they establish pathways toward their violent youth students and
how they identify the variables that play a crucial role in
controlling danger situations in our schools. Some theories we
emphasize are parent-child interaction and parenting gone awry;
others implicate larger systems such as neighborhoods and schools.
No matter, kids still attend school.
The training
focuses on gang identification and awareness; along with the
understanding, all children are at risk; a discussion of specific
gangs in your area, current trends among teens and solutions for
both the teacher and the entire campus as to reduce gang activity
and school violence. The program can be altered to fit the needs of
your organization.
The Objectives:
- To develop an awareness of the
need for violence prevention education;
- To evaluate existing programs
and initiate the creation of new ones;
