Trapped Between Innocence and Death: a guide to being free from gang life
by: John Saroyan, Ed.D.
Paul Cosores, BSW, DPO
The authors share their extensive knowledge of their work with gangs through two unique perspectives. Paul Casores has worked in Los Angeles County as a probation officer with adolescent gang members for the past twenty-five years. Dr. Saroyan has developed and run several treatment programs with juvenile gang members for the past fifteen years. Their perspectives are direct and "hard hitting." They provide historical information of gangs and gang life as well as share practical solutions for intervention.
This book serves as a guide to adults motivated to saving youth who are absorbed into a gang at any level. It is recommended reading for every parent, teacher, law enforcement agent, clinician or anyone else effected by gangs in our society.
