Mr. Twilight Bey (pictured left) is the lead Social Intervention Specialist and co-founder of SSI.

Twilight grew up in the economically deprived, gang & drug affected communities of South Central Los Angeles for 26 years. He now has more than 18 years of experience in social literacy development, conflict mediation, gang intervention and community and civic organising.

The work he has undertaken spans a broad range of US and international communities and institutions. He contributes to local and international efforts in youth and community focused initiatives such as gang intervention, capacity building, service learning, mentoring and community and leadership development.

Twilight Bey was also a key figure in the initiation of the Peace Talks in 1988 between rival Los Angeles Street Gangs. This led to him becoming a key organiser of the Cease Fire Agreement between the Bloods & crips of Watts, California in 1992.

Under the mentorship of Jim Brown, NFL Hall of Famer and All-Time All-Star, activist, movie star and founder and President of Amer-I-Can Inc., Twilight and the other founding members of Amer-I-Can were able to affect positive change throughout the County of Los Angeles in schools and neighbourhoods adversely affected by economic exclusion, poor academic achievement, gangs, drugs and violence.

These efforts have since been successfully adapted in similar communities across the United States and several other countries.

His work and programmes have been described as practical, innovative and genuine by young people, parents, teacher, community and statutory agencies alike. He continues to travel to and from the United States and remains a key participant in the development of social intervention initiatives and services worldwide.

Twilight serves as a co-founder of numerous community based organisations and action committees with the vision to reduce hopelessness and violence and improve socio-economic progression in the disenfranchised sections of society.

A valued contributor in these organisations, Twilight has helped to pioneer innovations and enrichment in the areas of education and social intervention.
