Description

This Resource Guide seeks to encourage solid decision-making and planning processes, foster the development of innovative partnerships while strengthening existing ones, and identify effective approaches to addressing youth violence, specifically gang violence. The purpose of this Resource Guide is not to present an absolute review of the research or to provide a specific prescriptive approach to developing a proposal. Rather, the intent is to give guidance on frameworks and processes that will help improve the likelihood of success for a proposed approach, as well as introduce applicants to some programs that have already been implemented and evaluated.
