Course Details

Safety in our communities is oftentimes issue #1. Fighting crime can be all-consuming for a neighborhood organization; it can seem overwhelming. Rampant drug dealing, pervasive drug addiction, and the crime that accompanies these illegal activities can ravage a neighborhood. Individual call for action can be effective, but when the community comes together to address safety, it can have a much more powerful impact. Learn what neighbors can do together to go beyond just fighting crime - to make a neighborhood a safe place to call home. Find out how to develop effective collaborations among residents, police departments, schools and businesses. Get tips on how to mobilize people who are anxious and maybe fearful about getting involved, and learn about innovative efforts taking place around the country that help fight crime and create a better sense of community.
