Established in 1971, the California Gang Task Force is a non-profit organization comprised of a governing board and members, all of whom are active law enforcement officers and detectives with their respective agencies. Members of the CGTF are a network of diverse, highly experienced officers who are subject matter experts on various California-based gangs. Law enforcement agencies can benefit from the assistance and support the CGTF offers as an additional means and resource in the day-to-day efforts of combating gang violence.

By attending CGTF monthly meetings, law enforcement officials are encouraged to network with CGTF gang experts and share real-time gang and other criminal organizational intelligence and trends regarding prison and street gang activity.

The CGTF hopes you will accept our invitation to join us in our coordinated effort to unite our law enforcement agencies throughout California to deal with the continued threat posed to law enforcement and civilians by prison and street gang members.
