Gang Risk Factors

This is an excerpt from the paper...

Young males and females are at risk for developing any number of behaviors or associations that are risky or overtly dangerous. Among these developments, participation in a gang is of enormous significance in that such groups are linked to crime, violence, drug use and abuse, school dropout and failure, and other activities that are viewed as both deviant and destructive (Grand Prairie Police Department, 2008). While familial factors such as divorce, single-parent homes, poverty,

poor or abusive parenting or guardianship, and drug or alcohol abuse within the family are linked to a potential for gang involvement, other factors can also be identified that place young people in the age 12 to 18 year-old cohort at risk
