Oakland Neighborhood Safety Summit

A message from Mayor Quan:

Greetings!

We, as a community, must take a stand against crime.

We are banding together as neighbors on our blocks and as a City to fight crime at all levels. We are pledging to replace complacency with commitment, fear with fortitude and isolation with community.

It starts at home with neighbors reaching out to neighbors and getting to know each other. Organized neighborhoods are safer neighborhoods.

It grows with building positive relationships between our police and our neighborhoods. Working together in Neighborhood Councils, police can focus on the top safety priorities of particular neighborhoods.  

It requires providing our police with the resources they need to do their job effectively and safely, and working in partnership with other public agencies such as the School District, the District Attorney, the Probation Department and our state and federal partners.  And it relies on formal and informal violence prevention activities  so that keeping our city safe is part of our collective culture as a city.

Please step up to the plate and join us at the Neighborhood Safety Summit to stand up for a safer Oakland.
