Community Partners

Social Contract

The  School District Regional Offices agree to identify appropriate school feeder patterns where a Youth Safety Coalition should be organized and assist the school administrators, teachers,  parents, and student organizations, community and business associations, and City departments in creating them. The Institute for the Study of Civic Values commits to assist in identifying and recruiting the key community organizations in each area that can provide effective neighborhood representation in these Youth Safety Coalitions.
