The StreetSafe Boston Initiative is working with at risk youth to try to prevent them from being stuck in the violent world they grew up in by redirecting them through education, jobs, housing and many other services, which are very valuable to these youth. Most of the youth who grow up in an "at risk" environment already have the cards stacked against them. StreetSafe Boston is trying to work with them to give them the opportunities to get out, and do better things with their lives for them and their families. I added a link to the StreetSafe page as well http://bostonfoundation.org/Content.aspx?ID=9398
