It was an honor to present a citation this afternoon to such an important organization in the 5th District. People Encouraging People is a Non - Profit organization that provides Behavioral/Substance Services and Homeless Outreach to the entire State of Maryland. They have been serving Northwest Baltimore for 44 years and are an invaluable resource to those that utilize their services. I would like to thank them for all they do and hope they stay in our district for many years to come.Image attachment

Thank you to everyone who joined Baltimore County Councilman Izzy Patoka, District 2, Councilmember Zeke Cohen and me this morning for this years High Holiday Public Safety meeting.

 The gathering was an essential opportunity for many of our community’s Rabbis, shul presidents,  institutional leadership, and community safety groups to hear from key law enforcement figures from Baltimore County Police Department and Baltimore City including Baltimore Police Department Commissioner Richard Worley, Baltimore City Sheriff Sam Cogen, and a very special thank you to citywide Jewish Liaison Sergeant Bill Currie who has been running the high holiday detail for seven years straight. 

We are deeply grateful for the insightful discussion on intel, the additional coverage, and the public safety assets that will be assigned to the community during the high holidays & October 7th.

A special thank you to our local law enforcement for taking these proactive steps. Your efforts are invaluable to our peace of mind and security, and we are grateful for your continued dedication to the community.Image attachment
