Missing Protector Strategy (MPS)

Suburban Gangs

The Affluent Rebels

by Dan Korem

Brief Overview

Dan Korem, author of Suburban Gangs—The Affluent Rebels, identified and developed a strategy that stops many at-risk behaviors for at-risk youths, including:

Gang recruitment & Assaults
Suicide
Chronic drug use
Teen Pregnancy
Truancy
Poor classroom performance

In virtually every school that applies this strategy, the above at-risk behaviors for at-risk youths who receive a "Protector" stops. Typically, if 100 youths are provided Protectors, only 5% will display any of the at-risk behaviors above. For more on the MPS, please see the PDF and video presentations below.
