GANG RISK INTERVENTION
Project YES is a
collaboration between CRP and the Sonoma County Juvenile
Probation. This program serves court-ordered youth and is
designed to educate youth about gang culture and risks, alternative
choices and behaviors, resources to support healthier choices, tools to
develop a positive meaningful life and an overall increased awareness
of the community. Each referred youth participates through
attendance at a 16 week life skills class. Program curriculum
consists of violence prevention, job training, college awareness,
community awareness, drug/alcohol use and abuse prevention, as well as
four weeks of intensive anger management skill training. Parents
and caregivers of these youth are also included in the program.
Individual and family counseling is offered to these youth and families
on an as-needed basis. Contact Bernardo Ruiz at 838-6641, x 254 or
Manuel Lopez, x 222 for more information.
