Community Policing
Through Weed & Seed’s Community Policing program, Weed & Seed residents have the opportunity to provide direct input on the things in their neighborhood that need police action. They also get the chance to voice their opinions on the effectiveness of those efforts.
How?
Neighborhood Advisory Council Meetings
Each month Weed & Seed Neighborhood Advisory Councils meet to discuss current problems,
and to work with families and youth on developing and implementing solutions. All neighborhood Weed
& Seed officers are required to these meetings, so they can develop relationships with residents and
learn about neighborhood criminal activity.
For a list of upcoming meetings, see Calendar.

these programs and how you can get involved to help prevent crime in your neighborhood, contact your Neighborhood
