Relief Society Night- November

Last night we had a very informative evening with Officer Zimmer from the Mount Vernon Police Department. He gave us valuable information about the presence of gangs in our community and how to recognize gang activity around us.

Scary fact: Did you know there are about 200 active gang members in our community? Wow, I was floored by that statistic.

He taught us about the major groups in Mount Vernon, how to recognize them and their grafitti, and how to recognize pre-gang behavior in our children.

Many thanks to Officer Zimmer for visiting with us and giving us all this useful information!
