Jack a Car, Jack Up Your Life is a carjacking prevention campaign created by teens, for teens. We want our friends to think and talk about what can happen if you jack a car or ride along. We know our friends are "...trying to have fun... but you may end up killing someone in your car." --Nevaeh, 14, was incarcerated for 4 months for carjacking. Listen to what she has to say here. And if you have a friend that needs to hear it, then share it!
