• Crisis intervention and conflict de-escalation
• Follow-up support to ensure lasting peace

• School-based outreach and support
• Life skills development and goal setting
• Positive alternatives to street life

• One-on-one counseling referrals
• Support for children and siblings of victims
• Long-term follow-up and check-ins
