CASP

The Community Alliance for Safety and Peace (CASP) is a cross-sector collaboration forged to reduce youth violence and to change the pervasive culture of violence that currently harms the families, neighborhoods, and communities of Salinas and Monterey County as a whole... CASP is made up of youth service organizations, county housing and health officials, local and state elected officials, criminal justice and law enforcement officials, educational leaders, business leaders, representatives of the faith community, and private funding organizations. More than 30 organizations and leaders are involved... CASP is part professional networking organization, professional learning community, and policy advisory group. Through partnership and alignment of resources, the over 60 member agencies do the heavy lifting of the daily violence prevention, intervention, enforcement and re-entry work.
