Esbensen, F., Peterson, D., Taylor, T. J., et al. (2011) . Evaluation and evolution of the gang resistance education and training (G.R.E.A.T.) program. Journal of School Violence, 10, 53-70.
Gang Resistance
The Gang Resistance Education and Training (G.R.E.A.T) program was developed in 1991 by law-enforcement officers in Phoenix, Arizona, in response to an increase in local gang activity. The program is taught to middle school-aged children by police officers in the school setting. Although the goals of the program were to encourage children to avoid gangs and gang-related activities, as well as to develop a positive attitude toward law enforcement, a 2006 study sponsored by the U.S. Department of Justice revealed the program was not effective. As a result, the program was modified. The most current assessment of the program suggests the revisions have been a positive change.
-When communicating the results about the effectiveness of the G.R.E.A.T. program, the authors should:

Understand the determinants and principles of defining bargaining units.
Identify legal and illegal practices in union elections and understand the consequences of such actions.
Comprehend the role of employer and union tactics in influencing employee decisions during unionization efforts.
Assess the significance of community interests, and workplace identity in the unionization process.
