Father G is also the author of the 2010 New York Times-bestseller Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion. His newest book, Barking to the Choir: The Power of Radical Kinship, was published in 2017.
Homeboy Industries is the largest gang-intervention, rehabilitation, and re-entry program in the world.
