   Youth Violence & Emerging Gang Activity – Western NC Community Symposium
  

  The North Carolina Gang Investigators Association invites community members, educators, service providers, faith leaders, and public-safety professionals to a one-day, community-driven symposium focused on exploring the real challenges facing youth in Western North Carolina and building stronger partnerships to address them.

  This symposium will center on open dialogue, shared experiences, and practical solutions bringing together those who work with youth every day to discuss prevention, intervention, and the impact of emerging gang activity across the region.

  Our goal is simple: listen, learn, and strengthen community partnerships that create safer pathways for young people and support those working on the front lines.

  Stronger Together.

  DEMO DAY

  The live fire demonstration will feature a 2015 Chevy PPV Tahoe upfitted with Level IIIA ballistic windshield and door glass, showcasing real-world vehicle protection capabilities under fire. Attendees will observe multiple weapon systems—including 9mm, .45 ACP, 12 gauge 00 buck tactical loads, and .556 rifle rounds—engaged against the windshield to demonstrate ballistic resistance. The side glass will then be tested using 9mm and .45 ACP in a simulated ambush-style attack, replicating close-range threat conditions officers may encounter in the field. The demonstration will conclude with a critical look at return-fire capabilities, highlighting how officers can effectively engage threats from within the vehicle by firing through the same ballistic glass designed to provide protection, reinforcing both the strengths and practical limitations of armored vehicle systems in law enforcement operations.

  
  

  Please bring your own Eye and Ear Protection to this event!
