THE FRANKENSTEIN SYNDROME
Healing Generational Complex Trauma through Empowerment
By Dr. Alonzo M. Jones

Science-based research is best qualified to help us understand complex generational trauma and activate intrinsic protections and remedies, causing homeostasis in struggling communities. The evidence calls us to inspire youth to blend their social, emotional, and self-control traits while assisting them in mastering the developmental task necessary to enjoy a satisfying and productive life.

INTELLIGENCE
The nuance that is seen
From a blank line between
Any two lines of eloquence;
Be it ever so small
If it rings true at all,
What else is INTELLIGENCE?
Cerebral seasoning; the power of
Reasoning from logical evidence;
Correcting confusion, and knowing
Illusion; -- is not this INTELLIGENCE?
Meandering visions, affecting
Decisions, -- man's VERY FIRST
LINE OF DEFENSE!
The only REAL TRACTION FOR WISDOM
IN ACTION is also INTELLIGENCE.
1972 --Lawrence Robinson
(Before he died, Mr. Robinson gave me permission to publish his poem for social empowerment.)

It has come to my attention that kids are getting robbed on ebay. Or should I say when kids try to make a sell in person the buyer pulls a gun and robs them. If you are planning to sell something in person, tell the buyer you want to meet at the nearest police station or at least in a crowded library, mall or casino. Never make a sell on the street corner. We Love You! ~Dr. Jones

I wrote and directed this commercial some time ago. I think it is still relevant. On behalf of the Southern Nevada Gang Task Force Community Coalition, don’t drink and drive. A murder behind the wheel is still a Murder. --Dr. Alonzo M. Jones, Board Chair

As you know this summer was very busy for us ... since 2004 I've always sent out a message from the field to include the large numbers of gang members we've impacted. I will do this in the coming week. God Bless You all for all your help on the lonely streets.

An emergency plan at a Bonanza Road daycare calls for quick evacuation to a “safe spot” — a zone in the single-story building where owner Frances Thomas can huddle with her young flock. But this is Las Vegas. Thomas isn’t overly worried about natural disasters. It’s what lies outside the ...

In 2008, I was a part of the Southern Nevada Gang Task Force and the Safe Villiage Initiative. We have continued to grow strong as a community coalition and God has accomplished a lot of God Through Us. We have no intention of surrendering because this is not our fight but it is his. You have not seen a lot of internet stuff on us because our focus has been our work in the community.

This is a picture of Mr. Bryan Urdesich with his new base ball team the Eagles sponsored by the Eagles Club. I watched them play against two teams and they destroyed both. Mr. Urdesich is our Businesses Network Leader and has amassed a conglomerate of businesses that are interested in rolling up their sleeves and strengthening American Communities. After all, how can Americans engage in life liberty or the pursuit of happiness without a means of income? People that live in America are strong and brilliant; sometimes they only need to be shown how to fish. Semper Fidelis!

A gunfight that started at a casino parking garage and followed the wounded to the hospital Sunday was likely triggered by gang members known to frequent one of the casino's nightclubs.

Recently I peered at a News Paper Article Written in 1998 that talked about the Southern Nevada Gang Task Force and its commitment to this community. I guess you could say the Task Force Community has a long history of working together for the greater good. This picture of the Safe Village Initiative is supported by the Southern Nevada Gang Task Force Community Coalition. We are thankful to all the community members that have stepped up to insure our world is a better place to live for our community. As long as God gives us breath we will not surrender. God bless Sherman Gardens.

This community is so proud of the work that, businesses, community, law enforcement and the Southern Nevada Regional Housing Authority is doing to truly promote a safe village in three of what was once the worse gang infested housing complexes in the city.
