SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS
The Safe Neighborhoods Network seeks to help children make good choices in life, such as staying in school, not committing crimes, and delaying sexual activity. Our goal is to support the development of well-adjusted children who, in turn, become well-adjusted adults. In 2014 the network took the lead in implementing Ignite Youth Alliance (formerly known as the Restoring the Village Youth Initiative), an anti-violence strategy for reaching St. Lucie County youth who are involved in, or at risk of becoming involved in, street violence. Safe Neighborhoods and its community mobilization subcommittee, the Lincoln Park Advisory Committee (LPAC), are continuing the community wide assessment of gangs and street violence in Fort Pierce.
Meeting Schedule: TBD.
