The Crossroads Graffiti program is a dynamic and interactive course which helps at-risk youth examine their reasons for vandalizing property with graffiti. Participants discuss their motivation for using graffiti and identify new and pro-active ways to communicate their “message.” A comfortable, non-threatening atmosphere is created where participants are encouraged to realistically examine their futures, and to set positive goals. A user friendly workbook incorporating NCTI's Personal Awareness Journaling(tm) that emphasizes the cognitive interaction of the curriculum is utilized in this program.
