Welcome

The mission of Weed and Seed is to ''weed'' out crime in neighborhoods; and ''seed'' in neighborhood restoration and positive community services!

Northwest Detroit Weed and Seed Strategy

Weed and Seed is a community outreach and crime prevention program of the U.S. Department of Justice. Northwest Detroit Weed and Seed operates under the leadership of U.S. Attorney Saul A. Green, of the Eastern District of Michigan.

The four elements of the Weed and Seed program include:

?· Law Enforcement ?… Coordinated efforts of federal, state, and county law enforcement with the 8th and 12th Police Precincts to apprehend criminals.

?· Community Policing ?… The ''bridge'' between the ''weeding'' (law enforcement) and ''seeding'' (positive community services). Working directly with community residents to develop solutions to neighborhood crime. Increased police visibility in neighborhoods.

?· Prevention, Intervention and Treatment ?… Youth services, school programs, community crime prevention awareness, funding for community safe havens, special initiative programming in the community.

?· Neighborhood Restoration ?… Revitalization of distressed neighborhoods in the Target Area through economic development.
