Sports-based crime prevention programs .: PS2-4/2017-3E-PDF

"Research suggests that sports have the capacity to connect youth to positive adult role models and provide positive development opportunities, as well as promote the learning and application of life skills. Furthermore, in addition to the physical activity and positive health effects it provides, sport is a generator of social capital, helping to mobilize the community by promoting involvement, togetherness and teamwork, as well as supporting culture within the community"--Background, p. [1].
