Klappentext zu „Working with Gangs and Young People “
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.

Autoren-Porträt von Jessie Feinstein, Nia Imani Kuumb
Jessie Feinstein has been working with young people in gangs since 1994. She worked in the US with young people in custody, often due to gang involvement, and subsequently has worked throughout the UK with gang members and the adults that work with them. Nia Imani Kuumba has worked with young people and professionals in the Caribbean, Europe and the US since 1984, and is a senior trainer in conflict resolution. Jessie and Nia have been working on Leap's Gangs and Territorialism Programme since 2001 and continue to set up training programmes for both adults and gang members. These programmes were developed based on the experiences of young gang members throughout the UK and successful interventions in the UK, USA and mainland Europe. Leap Confronting Conflict is a national voluntary youth organisation and registered charity providing opportunities, regionally and nationally, for young people and adults to explore creative approaches to conflicts in their lives.
