SOUTH-CENTRAL : Officers Meet the Community
In an effort to improve relations between local law enforcement agencies and the community, the 5-4 Optimist Club on Saturday kicked off “Officers Appreciation Week.”
The club will sponsor several activities this week, including visits by children from the 52nd Street Elementary School to the 77th Street, Southeast, Southwest and Newton police stations. A luncheon was scheduled for Saturday for residents and officers from the California Highway Patrol, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and the Los Angeles Police Department.
“We want to honor police officers in our community and make citizens aware of their responsibilities in fighting crime,” said club President Margie Evans.
