This guide also highlights indicators that may suggest a child or young person is either experiencing grooming or has become affiliated with a gang, and will explore strategies for providing essential support. The resource also looks at the legal aspects of gang participation, possession of knives and firearms, and the regulations surrounding ​‘stop and search’. Churches, mentors and carers can use this resource to raise awareness, recognise the signs, and learn how best to respond. This resource is intended to complement the Nicodemus ​‘Foundational Specialist Mentoring’ & ​‘Child Sexual Exploitation & Grooming awareness’ courses.

The type of tool you'd like to use may depend on how open and/or aware of Christianity the people you're working with are. The numbering system runs from 0 to 10 with: 0 - meaning the tool is suitable for engaging with someone who has no interest and/or knowledge of the Christian faith. **10** - meaning that the tool is suited to engaging with someone who is now making a decision to follow Jesus.
