G.R.A.S.P.

G.R.A.S.P.  
It stands for Gang Rescue and Support Project.  More specifically... 
G.R.A.S.P. is an intervention program for youth (mostly at age 14-24) at risk of involvement or involved with gangs.  They're a program of Metro Denver Partners.
Founded in 1991, G.R.A.S.P. is peer-run, meaning in this case that the people who run it are mostly former gang members who managed to escape that lifestyle and turn their lives around(1).

Here's their website:
