Mission Statement

Building Uplifting & Impacting Lives Daily

Laying The Foundation That Leads To A Productive Tomorrow

Description

We function under the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention’s Comprehensive Gang Model. There are five core service strategies:

Community Mobilization

Project BUILD solicits the support of the community in responding to issues concerning youth and gang problems.

Opportunities Provision

BUILD presents both educational and employment opportunities as a means of setting and accomplishing goals and increasing productivity.

Suppression

BUILD partners the community and community based agencies in an effort to reduce crime, violence and harm to the community.

Social Intervention

BUILD addresses social deficits and issues such as mental health, family dysfunction, substance abuse, and other factors that will diminish an individual’s ability to disengage from the gang and gang activity.

Organizational Change and Development

Through education and communication, BUILD aims to improve the ability of organizations and agencies to respond to gangs.
