Neighborhood Prosecutor Program

The Neighborhood Prosecutor Program can help improve the quality of life in their neighborhoods. As you may know, it was created to advance the City Attorney's goal of making Los Angeles a safer City through crime prevention and the effective prosecution of criminals.

The program is driven by the understanding that the ability to respond to neighborhood complaints and address criminal problems proactively is critical to preserving the quality of life in our neighborhoods.
