When you think about what kids and teens are up against after the sun goes down, a "safe night" is pretty hard to imagine.

It's even harder to imagine what can be done to make a difference. One project that gives young people positive opportunities is called Safe Night USA.

Safe Night USA:

	Helps youth avoid the most common factors that precede acts of violence.
	Gives youth the tools to resolve conflict and manage anger without violence.
	Helps build safer, less violent neighborhoods.
	Encourages communities to work together to identify key issues affecting teens.
	Creates local partnerships that include youth that continue beyond the project.
