1) Patience. It won't happen over night. The hood mentality needs to be eradicated and that will take at minimum 2 generations.
2) competent elected officials to complete the following.
3) Education along with after school programs. The parents are not going to help so it's up to the schools to change the mindset.
4) Real judges who are the toughest on crime.
5) Double the size of the NOPD and increase the pay. Unfortunately this means much higher taxes.

New Orleans small size has some to do with it. Houston is just as bad. If a shooting happens in SE Houston, the attitude is oh well. Everybody knows that area of town is a toilet.
Nola is so relatively small that it is easier for trash to spill over its borders.

Allowing this mindset specifically attributes to a large portion of New Orleans' issues. It's more times than not "someone else's problem" to parents. This isn't just area specific to New Orleans either. I've seen numerous interviews where a family member justifies a robbery or act of crime with "how's he supposed to eat? Put clothes on his back?" Etc. How in the hell do you expect schools or teachers to overcome that? The government assistance programs have bred some lifelong members that see no drive in bettering or pushing themselves when taxpayers give it to them for free and they can sit on their arse all day.
