IGAD 2016 – September 19th
NAGIA is proud to announce the 1st annual International Gang Awareness Day (IGAD). IGAD is held annually on the third Monday of September and is designed to coincide with the beginning of the school year when gangs being much of their new recruiting efforts.
NAGIA and its 26 associate organizations from around the US and Canada are requesting local law enforcement agencies dedicate a training or outreach program to groups in their jurisdiction. NAGIA also has presenters in Mexico, Africa and South America who will participate on the same day.
The day is designed to bring global awareness to the violent problems criminal street gangs pose on our communities. This is an excellent opportunity for local agencies to work in concert with community organizations designed to reach at risk children who are susceptible to gang recruitment techniques.
