OAKLAND: Youth summits held in hopes of decreasing gang violence

A program in Oakland Unite’s Street Outreach strategy was recently highlighted on KTVU Channel 2 news. The story focused on a street outreach worker, Akil Truso, and a group of youth from different parts of Oakland, who came together to discuss stopping the cycle of violence. This is one of several outreach methods used by street outreach workers to promote nonviolence and advocate for peaceful conflict mediation.
