Show Topic: At Risk Youth The Game of Chess

  • Summary

  • Is there a problem with at-risk youth and juvenile crimes across the United States Yes, there is a problem with juvenile crime in cities like Oklahoma City, Memphis, and Minneapolis, and the state of Minnesota is struggling to address it.

    Younger and younger offenders are committing more violent crimes, including shootings, carjackings, and armed robberies. Youth crime is a growing concern. Many young offenders are also victims with complex needs, leading to a public health approach that requires a balance of welfare and justice models.

    Join the Co-host Chiefs this Thursday at 6PM CST, streaming live on Facebook Live and YouTube. We discuss the game of chess and how an ex-convict who started the Big Chair Chess Club for inner-city youths in Washington, D.C., used his past experience to help at-risk youth find an alternative to running with street gangs. Can programs like this work in cities that have a high juvenile crime rate?
