Public Safety Committee STOP-DWI Monthly Report

September 2020 VIP – The Victim Impact Panel scheduled for August was canceled. I have arranged for use of the Visiting Judges Courtroom once a week for the months of September and October beginning on September 10th. This will begin to get our VIP program going again and catch up on some of the past referrals into the program. The plan is that I will lead the group of no more than 5 people as they watch a video and hear some testimonials. A representative from ACASA will also be there to help facilitate the program and speak on their alcohol programs. We will evaluate this approach to holding the event and determine how to move forward with it in the future. TRAFFIC SAFETY BOARD – Traffic Safety Board Committee meeting for August was canceled, as there was no new business to discuss. We will plan meet again in September. BIKE HELMETS – I attended the ACASA play pack giveaway between August 4th – 6th. We were able to give away 20 Helmets. I also worked with the SHAPE program (Supportive Home and Parent Enrichment) through Catholic Charities to distribute 14 additional helmets to kids in need. SADD CONFERENCE – We are still working to move forward with the SADD Conference in October. There is still so much to work through as to how schools may be able to assist in promoting and providing the program. We are really waiting for the schools to get through their initial reopening before we move too much with our plans. Brian Perkins Youth Bureau Director/STOP-DWI Coordinator 8/27/2020
