Resources
OJJDP's Strategic Planning Tool was developed to assist in assessing a community's
gang problem and planning strategies to deal with it. The Tool is a resource that
encompasses four interrelated components to assist in addressing a community's gang
problem. Those components link descriptive information about risk factors, best
practices, strategies, and research-based programs. Communities can catalogue
existing local resources by creating a Web-based Community Resource Inventory
account accessed on this Tool.
The National Gang Center website features the latest research about gangs;
descriptions of evidence-based, anti-gang programs; and links to tools, databases, and
other resources to assist in developing and implementing effective community-based
gang prevention, intervention, and suppression strategies.
The National Institute of Justice’s CrimeSolutions.gov uses rigorous research to
inform practitioners and policy makers about what works in criminal justice, juvenile
justice, and crime victim services. Visit the Gangs section of the site to learn about
applicable programs rated by CrimeSolutions.gov.
Additional gang-related resources may be found on OJJDP's website, by searching by
the keyword "gang".
