StopGangsInNEPA

StopGangsInNEPA StopGangsInNEPA is an open source community projected designed is a central location for gang prevention information for Northeastern Pennsylvania. Why?

There is no more denying the presents of gangs in NEPA. These individuals are relocating from places like New Jersey, New York City, and Philadelphia Metro Area to our communities. Because this communities are cracking down on their activities and they are working hard to make the same money. We have decided to create this page as a tool in the prevention of gangs in our community. The question:


Why are these organizations relocating to our NEPA?

1) The law enforcement is cracking down on gang activities in their own community
2) The price of drugs in our community are considerably higher then intercity communities
3) Our law enforcement does not have the man power to combat gangs correctly

Gangs are neither just a big city or inner city problem, nor are they a problem of a particular race or culture. Gangs cross all ethnic, racial, socioeconomic, gender, and geographic boundaries. They bring fear and violence to neighborhoods, traffic in drugs, destroy property, involve youth in crime, and drive out businesses. Gangs pull teens away from school and home into a life of violence. One of the scariest aspects of gang violence is it's often indiscriminate and unpredictable. Gang members have been known to kick, punch, hit, or even kill their victims. People get hurt if they are in the wrong place at the wrong time. If gangs or gang members are in your school or neighborhood, you know it.

The Department of Justice has found out if they invest nearly 10 million in youth after school activates they can save nearly 40 million dollars in court expenses in the first 10 years.

We need together as a community and offer the youth something positive to do instead of joining gangs and or committing crimes.
