Middle School Gangs: A Rising Concern

Is your child at risk of being recruited by gang members? What makes some kids more vulnerable than others? Understand the scope of the current (and changing) face of gang activity in your neighborhood.

There will be presentations by the police department’s gang unit, the County’s Office of the Commonwealth Attorney, and human service agencies. While middle school conditions will be a focus of the evening, parents of all school-aged children are encouraged to attend this important forum to learn how to prevent children from becoming involved in gang-related activity.

WHEN: Wednesday, May 20, 7-9 p.m.

WHERE: Sully Government Center, 4900 Stonecroft Blvd., Chantilly, VA 20151

CONTACT: 703-703-246-3271
