| Our strategies are consistent with the three-pronged, balanced approach of the Idaho State Department of Juvenile Corrections. The balanced approach emphasizes skill-building, accountability and protection of society. The strength of our program, now in its sixth year of operations, is in providing skill-building activities while holding youth accountable for continuing their education and contributing back to the community. Ultimately, our program helps protect our community by diverting youth from gang activity. To successfully address gang issues in our community requires this comprehensive, balanced approach. |

| Our project addresses a critical need in our community through education, job training and recreational programs. The Gang Intervention Through Targeted Outreach (aka “GITTO”) program utilizes three major components to attain its purpose of gang intervention: |
1: Resumption of educational achievement
2: Acquisition of basic job skills
3: The introduction of traditional and non-traditional recreational
and leisure activities.
