Jeffrey Brown: How we cut youth violence in Boston by 79 percent (script)
Summary
In most metro of the United States, there were cities where young people were killing each other for small reasons. There were severe violations there, drug and using guns were also common. And then, in those communities, reducing violence did not seem to be more cops and more suppression of dangerous areas. Those cities needed leaders and community members who really think that they have to collaborate and create a strong community system and it has to be valued. In fact, in those communities, young criminals were not cold and bold in their violence. They just clumsily live in to survive. They seek adults who don't look through colored spectacles, who don't exploit them and who are consistent in their behavior. If you are a pastor, you have to listen to their stories, not preach. You reach out, embrace them and ask them "how do you see this institution helping this situation?"  The conversation with them makes them your partners.  You can perform a miracle with them to cut youth violence.
