Community Learning Series

GRIP: Gang Response and Intervention Program

Parenting doesn’t come with a manual. It can be hard to know what’s going on with your kids. Join us for this free class where you’ll learn the warning signs of gang activity and how to keep the children we love from joining one. Snacks and daycare will be provided. 

• Who: All ages! Parents and peers are welcome to attend. There will be breakout groups in English and in Spanish. 
• What: A free series of lectures and workshops designed to empower parents and peers with information to keep kids safe. In this session, topics will include why young people are attracted to gangs in the first place, the warning signs of gang involvement, how to steer youth away from gang life at home, and what Longmont gang intervention resources are available to help keep kids safe.
• Why: To build community, heal from hurts, and empower parents and youth.
• Where: Lashley Street Station (1200 Lashley Street)
• When: Monday, September 18 from 6-8pm
• How: Register online today for one or all classes in the series, or call Claudia Orona at 303-774-3766
