Project Description:
All about crime involves a series of workshops where CFCA artists use their original program, "telling stories through art" to take participants through a process in which they relate how crime affects their lives, write about their feelings and experiences, and illustrate their narratives with pictures. The stories and artwork then become part of a movable mural that is used to educate the public about crime related issues.

Reduction in juvenile crime; improved academic achievement.
