Oakland Neighborhood Council 22X

Councilmember Sheng Thao's Newsletter

Looks like many of our neighbors are signing up for District 4 Councilmember Sheng Thao's newsletter. You can sign up, too, at www.shengforoakland.com.

How Oakland Has Seen a Big Drop in Crime—Without More Police

Excerpt: "Operation Ceasefire is an expansive strategy that requires cooperation between law enforcement, prosecutors, human services, community groups, faith-based organizations and, crucially, people who are involved in violent crime. Law-enforcement investigators gather intelligence about groups of people who may be involved in violent crime or are at risk of committing a violent crime. Those people are called to a meeting, where they’re offered social services and support."
