The CommuniGroup Jimmie C. Robinson, Sr. The Metropolitan Crime Commission formed in response to the rapid growth of crime in our area, and the fear of crime by its citizens. The Metropolitan Crime Commission works to reduce crime rates within our city, and to eliminate crime and crime-related problems within our community and neighborhoods. Volunteers are needed to participate on Task Forces, participate in CourtWatch, tutoring and mentoring area youth, assisting crime victims, working with young adults in serving the community, working neighborhood or community associations, sponsoring activities, and assisting wherever needed.
Task forces are action groups led by volunteers with staff support as required.
Members enable the MCC to identify the effectiveness of our criminal justice system, and the judges and prosecutors who represent us. CourtWatch findings are regularly published. Education TaskForce identifies and implements positive learning and personal instruction programs within our schools, assists parent organizations, and removes criminal activity and other distractions from the school environment. Legislative Watch utilizes volunteers to identify legislation, policies and action that will enable our public officials to effectively respond to crime-related needs. Concerned citizens serve as the eyes and ears of the legislative system and demand accountability from all public officials.
