BACKGROUND:
We
hope citizens will join Richmond Police and Target stores for a National
Night Out Kickoff Event.
Officers will be on hand with crime
prevention materials and children’s fingerprinting ID kits. The kickoff party
will also include free food.
In addition to the kickoff event, a
ceremonial signing will take place at 10 a.m. to launch the partnership
with The Richmond Police Department and U.S. Army for the Partnership for
Youth Success (PaYS) Program. The PaYS Program helps provide job
opportunities within the police department for Soldiers after completing their
service to the country.
“What better way to continue to help keep our
community safe than recruiting these reservists as well as Soldiers who are at
the end of their service for the U.S. Army,” said Chief Alfred Durham.
Members
of the media are encouraged to attend.
