Statistically over time crime does tend to fall in neighborhoods with this practice, though this will not have an immediate impact on crime. There is no silver bullet to defeating the challenges our community faces, so every little bit we can do helps! If you are interested or have questions about the Safety Walks, feel free to reach out to David Ratner.
