The St. Cloud Police Department has announced the dates for its “Safe Streets” initiative in 2022. They’re joining other organizations Thursday and Friday of this week in the city’s south side neighborhoods.

The St. Cloud Police Department Community Response Team Officers will go door to door with representatives from The Landlord Task Force, The CopHouse Neighborhood Coalition, and St. Cloud State University to engage with residents of the south side of town. These groups include, community healthcare and service providers, property owners and management, community organizations and leaders of SCSU’s Protect the Pack campaign.

The reasoning behind this campaign is to enhance neighborhood safety and security through meeting the homeowners, listening to concerns, promoting safety & awareness and creating meaningful relationships through dialogue.
