More about Youth Boxing Program
OurYouth Boxing program designated in a high gang activity area. Our program will address the issues of gang activity in the East Garfield community which correlates directly with the increase of homicide in this community.
Our objective with the Youth Boxing program is prevention and to reduce the participation of juveniles in the activities of gangs. We will counter the negative activities that have become the “normal” for our children with positive activities to bring about a “new normal”, positive conflict resolution. This program provides proactive services that will counteract the influences of street life, which ultimately leads to criminal activity.
