Survey: Uptown Community Ambassadors Program
From City of Minneapolis’ Community Ambassadors Project:
The Community Safety Ambassador pilot program is a new neighborhood safety resource. Safety ambassadors:
Are a friendly, visible, and welcoming presence
Share information about special events, businesses, and services located in the district
Offer support to help people with wellness concerns
Report hazards or emergencies
Check-in with local businesses
Connect with community to build trust, calm tensions, and prevent violence
The pilot program first focused on the areas of E. Lake St. and E. Franklin Ave., but will come to Uptown this fall.
