National Youth Gang Center
The proliferation of gang problems in large and small cities, suburbs, and
even rural areas over the last two decades led to the development of a
comprehensive, coordinated response to America’s gang problem by the
Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. As part of this,
the National Youth Gang Center was formed to assist with
efforts to reduce youth gang involvement. The center develops resources
and makes them available to the field, and provides training and technical
assistance in support of community-based prevention, intervention, and
suppression efforts.
