The Toberman Neighborhood Center in San Pedro has provided gang intervention services since 1977, making it one of the first such programs in Los Angeles. It utilizes a two-pronged approach including mediating conflicts and finding new paths for gang members through cease-fires and street-level mediation, as well as comprehensive individual services like drug counseling, mentoring, and legal assistance. Certified gang interventionists draw on Toberman's over 100 years of experience supporting families through social services to maintain peace in the community.
