HELPING YOUTH AVOID GANGS

Giving youth the support they need before they get into a gang

BY TANYA MCRAE SAN FERNANDO
PUBLISHED 9:45 AM ET MAR. 20, 2019

According to Los Angeles Police Department reports, gang-related homicides were down more than 20 percent last year. But gangs were still the cause of the majority of killings in Los Angeles. 

There are an estimated 450 active gangs with more than 45,000 gang members. Some of the most vulnerable potential gang members are children. Giving youth the support they need before they get into a gang is a joint effort being made by our police, our communities, and our schools.

PERSONAL TESTIMONY

Pastor Rudy life transforming experience in Christ, after the lure of drugs, alcohol, breaking into home and cars, joy riding, being shot at as a 14 year old for attempting to steal car stereos and at 16 experienced the trauma of waking up to mom screaming as our dad died at home after being denied a bed at the Veterans Hospital in Sepulveda Ca,  As a troubled youth I had said things to him I would later regret while under the influence of drugs and alcohol.  At 16 I woke in the Los Angeles County hospital in 1972 after an attempted suicide by drug overdose and eventually I dropped out of school at 17yrs of age and was already living with a grilfriend and failing in school.  


Living a reckless life landing in  city jail and county jail a couple of times which eventually led to doing 30 days at Mira Loma Detention Center, a Los Angeles County facility realizing that I never wanted to be locked up again. 


I was never a gang member but was shot by known gang members at the age of 21 after retaliating over a dispute, this led to carrying a gun not realizing that my life could change in a moment of time with what I call a lethal combination. ( Being under the influencence, carrying a gun and the wrong people showing up.)


I know the pain of a broken spirit living life with no direction and darkness,  yet I know what it means to be restored to life with a purpose through Jesus Christ!
