He found that a small percentage of the population committed most of the shootings in the city. By targeting that specific population -- the young men most likely to shoot or get shot -- Boggan believed he could have the greatest impact on reducing gun violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He convinced city officials to establish an \u003ca href=\"http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/271/Office-of-Neighborhood-Safety\">Office of Neighborhood Safety\u003c/a> and let him run it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re the only agency in the city of Richmond that is engaging the one-percenters — those individuals who are the most lethal young men in our city, who continue to walk our streets,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boggan's office employs a number of approaches to reduce crime, of which the fellowship program is just one. But, owing to the stipend it pays participants, that program has received the most \u003ca href=\"http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2014/06/richmond-california-murder-rate-gun-death\">attention\u003c/a>. The stipends, however, are funded by foundation grants, not taxpayer dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The stipend is a gesture of saying you are valuable, your expertise is valuable, your contribution to this work of creating a healthier city is valuable,” Boggan said. “Hell, we should be giving you more.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Boggan, the program succeeds because it helps participants forge relationships that aren’t based on fear or hate or grief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10889645\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 658px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-10889645\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/Screen-Shot-2016-03-08-at-1.43.32-PM.png\" alt=\"ONS staff and fellows travel on a trip to Mexico.\" width=\"658\" height=\"536\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/Screen-Shot-2016-03-08-at-1.43.32-PM.png 658w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/Screen-Shot-2016-03-08-at-1.43.32-PM-400x326.png 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 658px) 100vw, 658px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">ONS staff and fellows travel on a trip to Mexico. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of the Office of Neighborhood Safety)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Rasheed, who completed his fellowship in 2010, calls the program staff “the lost positive fathers of Richmond.\" He said they gave him \"a model of what your mom would want you to be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 25-year-old has since moved out of the city, recently earned his commercial driver's license, and is hoping to build a career in trucking.
