City of West Hollywood issued the following announcement on Aug. 23.
We'll begin seeking feedback in September regarding our new Community Safety and Well-Being Strategic Plan.
In response to concerns from the community about crime, mental health and addiction, income inequality and housing insecurity, and more, in November 2021 the City Council directed City staff to develop a CSWB strategy.
The CSWB approach emphasizes collaboration and crime prevention, allowing law enforcement to be able to focus on responding to more serious crimes while it empowers other trained staff, such as security ambassadors, mental health professionals, and outreach workers to address the broader social components of community safety and security.
The City’s CSWB Strategy will bring three broad service areas together in support of West Hollywood community members: Law Enforcement and Emergency Response; Neighborhood Livability; and Health and Human Services.
