Safety Network - Community Driven

Aspiranet’s Safety Network Program assists people living and working in San Francisco to collectively improve safety within their community. This community program, as part of the Sunset Neighborhood Beacon Center (SNBC), helps to build strong partnerships between law enforcement, residents, merchants, and local service providers. These coalitions determine priorities for neighborhoods; conduct outreach and education; set goals and objectives for advocating for change and help to implement crime prevention and public safety strategies.

The Safety Network strives to:

Build Capacity: Establish dialogue and build relationships between all community members, including residents, merchants, the police department, community & faith based organizations and city departments to facilitate and develop the capacity for collaborative problem-solving.
Advocate for Communities: Advocate for increased participation and civic engagement in the public policy process among community members so that they can shape and develop the future of their own communities.
Improve Public Safety: Develop community-driven strategies that address the root causes of violence and crime.
Improve Community Access to Services: Improve the coordination of and access to city services that impact public safety.

Aspiranet is proud of the community leadership this program provides to empower the communities it serves in San Francisco.
