Gangs

Gangs are organized groups that typically engage in criminal activities and often have a strong identity tied to their name, symbols, and territory. They can vary in size, structure, and purpose, with some focused on drug trafficking, violence, or other illegal activities. Members often share a sense of loyalty and brotherhood, which can lead to conflict with rival gangs. While many gangs are associated with urban areas, they can exist in rural communities as well. Gang-related issues often involve law enforcement, social challenges, and community impact, highlighting the need for comprehensive strategies to address their influence.
