November 18, 2024. We cordially invite all Magnolia Chamber of Commerce members participate in the 10th year of the Seattle Public Safety Survey, We suggest that it is vitally important that the city hear from all who live and/or work in Seattle about their experiences and views of public safety in neighborhoods.
The Seattle Public Safety Survey, conducted by the Seattle University Crime & Justice Research Center, is collecting responses through Nov. 30 at publicsafetysurvey.org. The survey informs the Seattle Police Department’s Micro-Community Policing Plans, which aim to meaningfully address public safety by understanding and directing resources reflecting the unique needs of the city’s neighborhoods.
As editorialize in the Seattle Times, results from years past show that perceptions of crime and public safety change from year to year, differ across neighborhoods, and that what people think about crime and police, their neighbors, and their ability to play a role in public safety affects their neighborhood quality of life.
Participants and police discuss the survey results in dialogue sessions and look for ways to work together to increase public safety. Survey results are available on SPD’s Micro-Community Policing Plans site (st.news/communitypolicing).
Take the Seattle Public Safety Survey today. It’s an opportunity for everyone who lives and/or works in Seattle to identify public safety concerns. Respondents can share more detailed thoughts about public safety in an open-ended question at the end of the survey.
