Councilman Isaac Yitzy Schleifer

We were very excited to break ground on the new Center for Hope. This collaboration will bring forth all sorts of resources for children and families affected by abuse.

This momentous occasion is even more special to the 5th district as it will be the first building to be part of the Pimlico Racetrack redevelopment.

Thank you to the Baltimore Child Abuse Center and Lifebridge for taking the first step and making this dream a reality.

“I have called on our state leaders to introduce legislation at the next session to create a database where victims, witnesses and communities effected by crime can track cases and see all information surrounding a particular case and any prior incidents by the same suspect with the exception of the juveniles name and contact information,” said Public Safety Council Chair Isaac “Yitzy” Schleifer. “This will establish transparency and accountability for cases in the juvenile system.”

The Baltimore Police Department has stepped up patrol in the neighborhoods most affected by this recent string of incidents and have added additional resources from our Mobile Metro Unit and Regional Auto Theft Task Force.

“There’s no accountability, there’s no transparency, we have no idea what happens once it gets there.”

Today marks the last day for our 5th district 'BMore Beautiful' community cleanup crew. Our teams have been cleaning up communities in the 5th district for the past few months. Thank you to CHAI, GNIA & Baltimore City Environmental Control Boardfor partnering with us to help keep the 5th district clean.
