V.E.G.A.'s goals include stressing the importance of resolving conflicts without the use of violence, providing young people with a better understanding of the consequences they face when joining gangs and participating in acts of violence, and delivering the "same message" to both parents and their children. The curriculum is taught as a five-lesson supplement to enhance any existing prevention curriculum for fifth and sixth-grade students. The lessons emphasize cooperative learning strategies and deal in a straight forward manner with the tough situations kids are experiencing involving violence and gang activity.
