Youth ACTing out in a healthier way | Community

Sacramento Area Congregations Together, or ACT as it’s better know, is a multicultural organization that empowers Sacramento residents to create a more healthy and less violent community. This organization is made up of 40 congregations, schools, neighborhood groups and 40,000 families from Sacramento. ACT’s purpose is to bring change by enlightening people that the greatest resource they have is their community. One of the ways ACT is improving the community is with their Youth and Gang Violence Prevention program.

The Youth and Gang Violence Prevention program has become a region-wide effort to bring a youth violence reduction strategy into Sacramento.
