Notable Quotes (4)
One of the things that the neighborhood safety Community Council is charged with is our office of neighborhood safety does receive government funds and the community council we get to decide partially where those government funds go.
There's always something there that you can latch on to and try to develop and support and try to guide people who through no fault of their own maybe were born into circumstances that weren't ideal.
My hope is that we can communicate more with each other and align the work as opposed to everyone just doing their own thing.
I would love to see the communities come back to being more Villages like we know who's on the Block you know who's around you say hi more to your neighbors.
