The Backbone Team is supporting the City of Aurora to gather voice and perspective around youth violence to inform its youth violence prevention work.
In addition to conduction focus groups with key stakeholder groups, the Backbone Team is also conduction individual interviews with parents, as their schedules are less conducive to a scheduled time all together. Last, week Community Weavers conducted five parents interviews. Additional interviews and focus groups are in the process of being scheduled.
