The Public Safety/Crime Prevention Committee acts as a forum to support community partnerships to prevent crime and the fear of crime in the community. More specifically, the committee:
• Increases community policing and livability by encouraging the formation of Neighborhood Watches
• Focuses on neighborhood priority issues such as car prowls, car theft, identity theft, and burglary.
• Works with the Southwest Crime Prevention Specialist and Neighborhood Response Team Officers to problem solve, share information, and address crime issues.
• Host community meetings to increase awareness and give residents preventive measures.
Meetings are held the first Monday of the month at 7 PM in the Hamilton Room of the Multnomah Center, 7688 SW Capitol Hwy. Chair Nancy Hand: 503-452-9483, enchand [at] hotmail [dot] com.
