Based on the city's crime rate, Tucson was chosen nationally by the U.S. Department of Justice to be involved in a violent crime reduction partnership.
TPD held a press conference on Monday and announced plans for the U.S. Department of Justice National Public Safety program.
“People in class, you know, they're afraid. People are afraid to talk about gun violence,” said Mary Cate Cline, a student at the University of Arizona.“Early October, there was a campus shooting and a professor was killed. And so, I really felt like that was the last straw for me that something needed to happen,” said Cline.
PSP has worked with more than 50 areas nationwide resulting in a reduction of violent crime in most of those cities, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. Another goal of the program is to involve local businesses, community groups and non-profit organizations hoping to create evidence-based solutions.
