AFTER INTENSIVE TRAINING, THE YOUTH AND ADULTS (WHO LIVE IN AREAS PRONE TO VIOLENCE) SHARE PRACTICES OF DE-ESCALATION, CONFLICT TRANSFORMATION, AND TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE WITH THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS, PEERS, AND NEIGHBORS. OFTEN YOUTH AND FAMILIES IN NEIGHBORHOODS MARKED BY VIOLENCE ARE ERRONEOUSLY LABELED AS "TROUBLEMAKERS."
