WEBINAR ON THE APPA CARE MODEL: RESPONDING TO GANG VIOLENCE IN REENTRY PLANNING May 3, 2011
Posted by FairSentencing in : Current News , trackbackThe National Reentry Resource Center is sponsoring a webinar on gang violence and reentry on May 11. Gang violence accounts for a disproportionate amount of criminal activity: A study of Boston’s Project Ceasefire found that less than one percent of youth were responsible for more than 60 percent of youth homicides. Many of these youth were affiliated with gangs and under community supervision (or at least well known by justice officials) prior to committing homicide.
This is the first in a two-part webinar series focusing on the American Probation and Parole Association’s (APPA’s) Collaboration, Analysis, Reentry, Evaluation (CARE) model to address gang reentry. This webinar will include an overview of the CARE model and Project Safe Neighborhoods. Specifically, the webinar will provide strategies for partnering with agencies inside and outside the justice system and helping gang-affiliated individuals return to the community following incarceration. These and other issues will be discussed in this webinar.
Date/Time: May 11, 2:00 – 3:30 p.m. ET
Presenter: Matthew DeMichele, Ph.D, American Probation and Parole Association
