Title: Results from the New Mexico Gang Threat Assessment Phase II: Service Provider Survey

Summary: The New Mexico Statistical Analysis Center (NMSAC) contracted with the Department of Public Safety to complete an online survey of service providers throughout New Mexico. This was accomplished with input and assistance from members of the Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Task Force and the New Mexico Gang and Terrorism Task Force (NMGTTF). The survey aimed to assess prevention, intervention and treatment strategies that take into account the unique dynamics of the gang problem in New Mexico communities. The PSN Task Force intended to use the results of the survey to create a resource directory for referrals, identify needs for gang programming, and help design their media outreach campaign to combat gang violence statewide. Additionally, the NMGTTF planned to use the information to help craft gang specific legislation. This survey is the second PSN funded statewide survey related to gang activity administered by the NMSAC. The first survey assessed law enforcement perceptions about the gang problem. The second survey, which we discuss in this report, focused on a broad range of service providers and services. This includes counseling services, in school programming, after school activities, government sponsored programs, community center programming, and law enforcement sponsored activities. The intent was to gather information from a wide range of sources whose activities or services may include any form of gang prevention, intervention or treatment.
