Panel 2.7 What can Prison Programs Teach Us About Promising Techniques to Combat Violent Extremism?

Programs within prisons provide evidence-based successes in altering and preventing hate-motivated violent behaviors, including conduct by organized groups operating within prisons. One of these, Guiding Rage Into Power (GRIP) has worked with violent offenders in California prisons for more than 20 years. This panel, which includes individuals who themselves have committed acts of violence, will explore how to adapt and apply proven prison-based approaches to hate-based violence. Simultaneously, this panel will provide powerful models to be employed more broadly in prisons, which are active locations for recruitment into violent groups.

The most effective communication is designed with the specific listener in mind.
