Protection

Every Marylander deserves to feel safe in their own neighborhood.

As mayor, I prioritized community policing because public safety is strongest when law enforcement and residents work together.

Officers were visible, engaged, and focused on partnership. We established programs like the Explorer Program to strengthen youth engagement and build long term trust.

Crime is real. Our communities should not have to tolerate it.

Safety is not just about patrol presence. It requires strategy, prevention, accountability, and stronger mental health support.

• Strengthening partnerships between law enforcement and the communities they serve

• Expanding prevention and youth engagement efforts that reduce crime before it starts

• Supporting accountability measures that build trust and improve outcomes

• Increasing access to mental health resources and early intervention services
