community to engage in crime prevention and law enforcement awareness
activities;

involvement of the community to prevent crime and improve livability.
The training will consist of six workshops. Participants
will have an opportunity to meet and learn from speakers from District Attorney
Office, Office of Equity of City of Portland, Police Review Office, Crime
Prevention Bureau of East Portland, Child Welfare, Northwest Family Services and
Russian Oregon Social Service. Workshops will be held in an interactive way.
