How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Community Engagement Through Sports
    methodology: community-engagement-through-sports
    By using boxing programs led by police officers, we build trust and positive relationships with youth, because shared physical activity and mentorship create non-confrontational spaces for connection and reduce barriers between law enforcement and communities.
