Gang culture is on the increase, but remains surrounded by myths. While gangs can lead young people into dangerous situations and breed community division, distrust and fear, the friendship, support, security and sense of belonging they offer are often overlooked by those working with young people involved in gangs. This book explains that an individual cannot be forced to leave a gang environment but, with education and support, can be equipped to choose an alternative lifestyle. Working with Gangs and Young People is a tried-and-tested training program for anyone involved in conflict resolution with young people in groups or gangs, and offers effective interventions that work. Based on a five-year action research project, this practical fully photocopiable toolkit gives practitioners the materials, support and inspiration needed to engage young people who are involved in a gang.
