Gang Intervention
GRCN intervenes with gang members and those students on the fringe of gang involvement through direct advice and conflict resolution activities with disputing parties, as well as meeting with parents/guardians for the purpose of bringing about a disassociation with gangs.
GRCN maintains a variety of records (e.g. interventions, gang members and affiliations, etc.) for the purpose of compiling and documenting activities in compliance with requirements. All participants take part in one-on-one and group sessions where they can discuss issues moving beyond gangs to life as an adult.
