Gangs Unite
Gangs Unite CIC is a youth advocacy and anti-violence community based organisation, in Waltham Forest, East London. They reach and connect young people with the care and services they need right where they are, raising awareness surrounding the dangers of youth violence and the negative impact it has on the community, whilst providing positive avenues for change and rehabilitation in a family-like safe environment.
They believe that the absence of opportunities, lies the best of potential, and therefore, we should not lose our young generation to gangs, crime, prisons, drugs, depression, mental health or idleness.
Their mission statement is 'Meeting Needs & Providing Opportunities'. And they achieve their mission by:
Accurately assessing current learning abilities.
Identifying an individual learning plan, for each student.
Securing re-integration, back into mainstream, when possible.
Offering post 16 opportunities.
Supporting our students’ social, moral, spiritual and cultural needs
“Everyone has needs, all different and varying, yet all have needs. All need opportunity, yet many are denied any”
