The “Oikos” Center in Valencia, operated by the Dominicans, is offering therapy to families whose children have become involved in gangs, such as the “Latin Kings.”
The Oikos Center has a team of psychologists, teachers and lawyers to care of the dozens of teens and young people ages 12 and up who belong to the “Latin Kings,” a gang found mostly in Latin America, with some groups in Eastern Europe and Spain as well. “Most of our kids are boys, although there are some girls too,” said the Center director, Inocencia Rincon.
