Pathways to Peace
was initiated by Mayor Johnson as part of a comprehensive effort to safeguard
the lives of Rochester youth, diffuse potentially violent situations and help
them get on track to a better life. The PTP team reaches out into targeted
neighborhoods to assess the needs of youth, network with all available
resources and link at-risk youth to appropriate services.
Pathways to
Peace offers prevention, intervention and direct monitoring for youth receiving
the services needed to support their positive progress. For more
