Bio:

Rudy is the Director of a gang intervention and prevention program called Gang Rescue And Support Project (GRASP). GRASP was started ten years ago by youth who were in the depths of gang warfare going on as an effort to do something positive for their peers. Rudy conducts weekly groups, organizes a free tattoo removal program for youth under age 21, and speaks at schools and detention centers to impart better understanding of young people caught up in gang culture.
