San Salvador mayor seeks help with gangs on San Francisco visit
Salvadoran community leaders welcomed the mayor of San Salvador to San Francisco on Tuesday in hope of establishing a sister city relationship that could go beyond the usual trade delegations and cultural exchanges and tackle a grittier issue: an escalating transnational gang problem.
“Gang violence in San Salvador now impacts our youth,” said Ana Prez, director of the Central American Resource Center, a 22-year-old family service organization in San Francisco. “If our kids get deported, they end up in a world of extreme violence there. … And now we have youths fleeing from El Salvador because of the gangs,” who wind up as the street-level dealers for the same syndicates in San Francisco.
