Abstract
Community Youth Gang Services (CYGS) and Youth 2000 established the Greater Los Angeles TACC, which accepts membership applications from [local] newly established TACC's. Upon admission, these latter organizations will be chartered and their progress and development facilitated by CYGS/Youth 2000 staff. Advantages of membership include updated antigang and community mobilization techniques, limited access to the CYGS gang tracking database, crime report updates, and ongoing assistance by qualified CYGS/Youth 2000 staff. Also, each chartered TACC will receive a TACC newsletter, the latest versions of the Gang Education Assessment and Planning System (the most up-to-date community related antigang technology) and certification upon completion of any components outlined in the Assessment and Planning Systems. The packet includes succinct descriptions and how-to procedures for each component of the action campaign to assist each TACC in establishing a successful Community Recovery Campaign. Components of the program include such activities as Graffiti Removal, Anti-Gang Public Relations Campaigns, Mental Health Counseling, and Recreation and Sports Activities.
