Many practitioners confuse “intervention” with “prevention”. For example, when a kid begins to act out, or commits their first misdemeanor or crime, practitioners begin to employ their strategy to “prevent” that youngster from joining a gang or continuing down the negative road he has started on. However, in my view, this is not “prevention”, but rather, “intervention” to stop the youngster from committing further violations of the law.
“Of course this type of work is necessary, and effective in helping a youth turn from a lifestyle of committing more crimes and getting caught in the web of the Juvenile Justice system. I suggest that we need to take the issue a step further in working on root issues that will “prevent” a kid from ever going down the road of delinquency and joining a gang. This is what I mean by prevention and I believe many parents would rather know how to have this type of prevention, rather than assuming, guessing and hoping that their son or daughter never becomes a gang member in a gang neighborhood.
“Guarantees? Well, what can anybody really guarantee in this life? The fact is, many good parents have done all the “right” things and have still suffered the heartaches of losing their kids to gangs and youth violence. Having said that, the fact also remains, according to the most recent research, that most kids are prevented from ever joining a gang, committing acts of violence, and never go down the road of juvenile delinquency.
According to renowned gang research experts, Malcolm W. Klein and Cheryl L. Maxson:
“The best estimate of general U.S. youth gang prevalence is 5% ever-joined, 2% current gang members…Perhaps the strongest message in this research is that even with unrestricted definitions in high risk populations, most youth – 7 or 8 out of 10 – do not join gangs through adolescence.”
(Klein, Maxson, 2006. “Street Gang Patterns and Policies”, Oxford University Press)
Thus, in searching for answers to gang prevention, the question is not “why do kids join gangs”, but rather, “Why do most kids not join gangs?”. This book focuses on the latter and advocates for community decision makers and practitioners to consider changing their focus from the problems gangs create to the problems that create gangs.
