APPROVE 7 – 0 (Attach revised BT / Attach revised Exhibit 2) Council Member Aaron Bowman asked about the status of the
Sheriff’s initiative to reduce violence crime a year after the initiative was
launched. JSO Assistant Chief T. K.
Waters explained that the initiative had been going well, that JSO was seeing
positive results. 700 gang members had
been identified and that JSO had met with these individuals, most of whom are
on probation, to impress upon these gang members that there were alternatives
to gang life, that there were paths for them to live different lives. JSO is partnering with Project New Hope,
the Clara White Mission, Garlan Scott and others on the initiative for job
training and other programs for gang members who sought an alternative life-style. |
