Mayor Eric Adams emphasized the importance of community involvement, stating, "We need to work hand-in-hand with the neighborhoods. Their expectations are our orders, and we are here to listen and deliver results." He highlighted the need for a holistic approach in crime reduction, not just relying on police presence but also on engaging with residents to address their concerns and improve their surroundings.
Highlighting the progress made, Adams noted, "In just over two months, our combined efforts have led to zero shootings in the targeted areas, demonstrating that community action alongside police work can effect real change and recovery in neighborhoods that have been plagued by violence for too long." This underscores the potential for sustained success through strategic partnerships.
