The Future of Safety Is Being Built in Kansas CityβIf the City Will Let It Thrive
With the launch of REACH, Kansas City's first-ever pre-arrest diversion program, the city stands on the brink of redefining safetyβnot with cages or punishment, but with care and restoration.
KC initiated the REACH program but isn't supporting it.
Read this article from @TheKansasCityDefender and then talk to our local council about it.
A city led by care is a city led by community, and as a community we need to keep an open conversation with our local officials.
