67th Precinct – Sector D Build the Block

Neighborhood Safety Meeting Neighborhood policing seeks to

close the divide between cops and community. But it can only succeed

with your support. That’ s why the NYPD has been holding a series of local meetings. These Build the Block neighborhood safety meetings are strategy

sessions between local police officers and the people they serve. The meetings have two

simple goals: identify the public safety challenges of a specific neighborhood and

discuss potential solutions. The department is taking another important step

towards improving trust, collaboration, and safety through neighborhood policing. But we

can’t do it without you. Join the discussion about issues in your community.

This is your opportunity to have your voice heard about specific safety and policing

challenges in your own neighborhood.

Date: Thursday, September 26 at 7PM

Location: St. Therese of Lisieux, RCC (gym), 1281 Troy Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203
