Overview
Gang 102 is designed for multidisciplinary school teams (administrators, school counselors, school psychologists, SROs/SSOs, probation, behavioral health, sped case manager, Level 2 community threat assessment partners) who have completed Gang 101 and are ready to translate awareness into action. Drawing on the U.S. Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention’s (OJJDP) Comprehensive Gang Model and insights from the Council of Juvenile Justice Administrators, this session guides participants through planning and implementation of coordinated prevention, intervention and suppression strategies.
The training will explore who needs to be at the table for consistency, inclusion and safety, including administrators, counselors, psychologists, school resource officers, community partners and families. The course emphasizes that success comes from engaging youth and families beyond the school day, building a climate of belonging, and coordinating responses across schools, law enforcement and community organizations.
