Passage One

Members of the city council and distinguished guests,

it is my privilege to introduce to you today Mr. Robert Washington,

chief of our city's police force.

He will address us on the subject of the Community Policing Program.

Most of you know that Mr. Washington has a distinguished record

as head of our police force for more than ten years.

However, you may not know

that he also holds a master's degree in criminology

and studied abroad for a year with the international police force

which deals with crimes around the world.

Mr. Washington first introduced the Community Policing Program 8 years ago.

The idea behind the program is to get the police officers

out of their cars and into our neighborhoods

where they can talk directly to merchants and residents

about the real dynamics of our city.

These officers do more than make arrests.

They try to find ways to help solve the problems

that contribute to crime in the first place.

Often that means hooking people up

with services offered by other city agencies,

such as schools, hospitals,

housing, drug treatment centers.

And the program seems to be working:

crime is down and our citizens report

that they feel more secure.

Today Mr. Washington is going to tell us more about this program.

Now let's welcome Mr. Robert Washington.
