But the city only committed funding through the current 2025-2026 school year, and city leaders made it clear that this was a pilot program they would support for the first few years and then hand over to the district to build into its budget or seek outside funding. That funding cliff has arrived just as OUSD navigates a serious budget deficit and needs to trim $100 million from next year's budget.
He entered the restorative justice room with the careful steps of someone who had lived too long in survival mode. At 26, he carried the weight of a life shaped by hunger, abandonment, and the need to defend himself long before he understood his own emotions. As a teenager, he worked as a sicario in Medellín, pulled into a world where fear became currency and silence became armor.
Aquil Basheer believed that ending gang violence wasn't the kind of career you just fall into. "In this type of work, you're usually chosen.

Police and violence prevention groups are making plans to keep residents safe at the West Indian Day Parade and the pre-dawn J'Ouvert carnival this weekend, just two weeks after a mass shooting in Brooklyn killed three people and injured 11 others. Police have not arrested any suspects for the Aug. 17 shooting. Mayor Eric Adams said retaliatory shootings could follow unless violence prevention groups work with family members of the victims to prevent them.
who has advocated for cooperation between cities and the federal government on crime, asked what a productive relationship with the Trump administration looks like?

"There is a gap in the law around the planning of mass attacks that can be just as serious [as terrorism] in their implications for communities, their impact, the devastation that they can cause and the seriousness of the crime."
