According to its Department of Homeland Security CVE grant proposal, ICJIA conducts "bystander-gatekeeper" trainings to "educate a broad cross-section of communities on how to off-ramp individuals who exhibit warning signs of radicalization to violence as well as those who exhibit behaviors signifying they may be in the early stages of planning an act of ideologically inspired targeted violence." Significant research, however, demonstrates that there are no scientifically-proven warning signs or indicators of radicalization or vulnerability to violence. Although ICJIA claims to use a public health approach to violence prevention that borrows from gang prevention models, rather than debunked radicalization theories, we know that 1) the scope of gang violence is markedly different (namely, more common) than violent extremism and 2) gang prevention programs do not have a successful track record and disproportionately target people of color. By asking social service providers like mental health professionals and teachers to identify and report potentially vulnerable youth, we turn trusted adults into informants. In addition, ICJIA still relies on assumptions driving radicalization theories: that we can identify who may vulnerable to violent extremism using a menu or checklist of warning signs. Although ICJIA suggests that CVE is an alternative to conventional counterterrorism and as different from other harmful CVE programs, these community partnerships increase communication with law enforcement agencies like ICJIA. And conventional counterterrorism tactics like FBI stings and preemptive prosecutions have not stopped with the introduction of CVE.
