  • The Caheri Gutierrez Story
    The Caheri Gutierrez by Story James O’Brien On November 20, 2008, Caheri Gutierrez was stopped at a traffic light in deep East Oakland when her life changed forever. What follows is a real story most people can’t begin to comprehend and will hopefully never experience. Caheri is living proof of the need for, and impact of, Youth ALIVE!. What happened to her is horrific, but it doesn’t end with a broken girl lost in sadness and trauma. Two years after the incident, Caheri joined the Youth ALIVE! staff as the Teens on Target Violence Prevention Educator. This is her story. Oakland is one of the five most violent cities in the U.S., with a murder rate nearly four times the national average. Yet it is also a beacon of hope. Youth ALIVE! is a nationally recognized, Oakland-based nonprofit whose mission is to prevent violence and develop youth leadership in California communities. Our programs – Teens on Target anti-violence youth leadership and peer education, Caught in the Crossfire intervention with gunshot victims to break to the cycle of violence, and Khadafy Washington Project assistance to grieving families to reduce tensions following a homicide – have been replicated in dozens of communities across the country. Our organization relies on the donations of individuals to help other youth like Caheri make positive life decisions, recover from violence, avoid re-injury, and be a part of the change necessary to make our streets safe for everyone. Please consider visiting www.YouthALIVE.org to make a donation. If you would prefer, please mail a check payable to Youth ALIVE! to 3300 Elm Street, Oakland, CA 94609.
