Description:
This Webinar examined the Urban League's [email protected] program, a three-year-old collaboration with the LAPD that has contributed to a significant drop in homicides in the Park Mesa Heights neighborhood in central Los Angeles. The audience should leave with an understanding of how these two partners, along with dozens of others, originally came together; what are the key elements that have contributed to their success; and tangible policy implications and lessons that they could apply to their own work.
This discussion was sponsored by the Government Innovators Network and the Program in Criminal Justice Policy and Management.
The Power of Social Innovation Series features practitioner-led Webinars on timely topics from education reform to economic development. Innovators share their experiences and insights with fellow practitioners, students and scholars from across the country.
Panelists:

- Charlie Beck, Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department
Moderator: Christopher Stone, Daniel and Florence Guggenheim Professor of the Practice of Criminal Justice, Harvard Kennedy School
