Streetworker Outreach
Streetworkers build relationships with proven-risk young adults, conduct gang peacemaking, visit young people in correctional facilities to provide supports and build relationships, and recruit individuals to engage in UTEC’s programs upon their return to the community. Streetworkers also facilitate gang peacemaking and respond to incidents of community violence. With more than 25 active gang sets in our communities, crisis response and conflict resolution are essential to breaking barriers for young people.
