Wallingford, Meet the Police

seattle_policeNext Tuesday, January 22nd at 6:30 pm, I’ll be hosting a 90 minute meeting with a Seattle police officer and facilitator in my living room in Wallingford.  If you’re interested in being a part of the conversation to improve police-community relations, please consider coming.  I’ll be able to host up to 20 people – if there’s more interest than that, we can set up a second meeting.

The focus of this meeting will be:

  • What are the top concerns of residents when it comes to safety in their neighborhood
  • How can the community work better with the Seattle police to create a more collaborative relationship
  • What can Seattle police do better
  • What do Seattle police do now that does work.

A delegate and an alternate delegate are selected from the group to go to a larger county-wide meeting in March, where the data from several conversation programs are examined and action steps are discussed.

Please RSVP to jtrupin@comcast.net for address (easily accessible from the center of Wallingford).

    I have a previous commitment and won’t be able to make it. If someone could summarize the meeting and post that summary here, I’d be grateful.
