ABOUT OC GRIP
Mission statement
To prevent targeted at-risk minors from joining criminal street gangs and enable them to graduate from high school free from destructive criminal behavior.
OC GRIP operates in over 60 schools countywide.
Orange County Gang Reduction and Intervention Partnership (“OC GRIP”) is a collaborative effort between the Orange County District Attorney’s Office, Orange County Sheriff’s Department, Orange County Probation Department and various police departments with the goal to prevent minors from joining criminal street gangs.
OC GRIP also works closely with Waymakers, a non-profit organization that shelters children, supports victims, counsels families, and educates communities. Faith based organizations, private businesses, and community groups also partner with the program.
