DARE Report by Officer Chad Gillen Resisting gang and group violence

DARE Report by Officer Chad Gillen Resisting gang and group violence This week in D.A.R.E. your students learned and discussed the negative consequences resulting from gang and group violence, and how to help them resist becoming involved.

Listed below are several topics for discussion to help you reinforce what your child learned:

* What is a major difference between a school and church club and a gang? (Gangs are involved in acts that break the law.)

* When a person chooses to get involved in a gang, name a possible consequence to the person; to their family; to their neighborhood?
