RELATED: Chicago shooting; Teen killed in Noble Square was 'joy of the school' at Rauner College PrepBurges said the violence issue stems from a lack of male figures for teens to look up to.
"The pressure is on the younger and younger and now you have little boys trying to be grown men, getting grown people results.," said Burges."This is why you've got people dying. This is why you have no way of controlling them and they're pretty much lost causes at this point unless we reach them." "Every time we start a new season of mentoring, we have a waiting list so we want to make sure that we can serve more young men so that waiting list can come down," Jermaine Lawrence Anderson, the group's executive director. "And it shows us that because they're on the waiting list, they want to do something better and they want to do something different with their lives.
Organizers said one-on-one mentorship is key, showing that one child consistency and presence in their lives. "One at a time. One conversation. One situation at a time. If you can save one, you can save a block," said Sturges.
