Case of the Alvarez Family
Albert and Maria Alvarez, a married couple both 40 years of age, and their two children (Albert Jr. known as Albie, age 20, and Juan Carlos, known in the neighborhood as JC, age 16), live in a predominantly Hispanic middle income community. Albert is the shop owner and manager for a successful auto repair shop and Maria recently got a promotion at a retail department store in the local galleria. They live in a an area that
is on the edge of their old neighborhood, where Albert and Maria grew up. Albie went through a difficult period involving drug use and gang activity in his early teens, but now has a good job as a senior printer for a local print company and has pulled away from his old gang associates. He takes classes at the local university at night after work, to complete his degree in journalism.
JC has recently become more heavily involved with the same gang and he is the reason the family has come for help. A close friend of JCs was fatally stabbed and the entire family has been in turmoil, trying to dissuade him from engaging in revenge or violence. In spite of the familys protests, JC pledges to get even with a local young man known in the community – in retaliation for the death of his friend.
The family has considered moving away from their community, but is reluctant to move away from close extended family and friends, and away from the family business housed in the old neighborhood. The family is strongly connected in the community of their childhood through church attendance, community projects and mentoring activities. Mr. Alvarez works with the youth center to provide apprenticeships to at-risk
youth from the local high school. The Alvarezs expressed a wish that the church would take a more active role in addressing community concerns and desire for someone to help their community fight the increasing gang violence that is now moving into their middle class neighborhood.
