A better approach to health, safety, and equity.

As a resident community leader, I want to shout my praises far and wide for the LEAD program. Staff are compassionate, caring, and out-of-the-box thinkers in their approach to neighborhood safety, order, and public care for human lives. LEAD uses a gradual yet consistent approach, helping people move towards real and meaningful life changes.
