This
National Institute of Justice (NIJ) journal article describes evaluation
findings of the Gang Resistance Education and Training program, which teaches
kids to avoid gang membership and helps them develop positive relationships
with law enforcement. An NIJ-funded evaluation found that a revised curriculum
and greater attention to teacher training have resulted in an improved program
for preventing gang membership and delinquency.
