One of the essential elements of community policing is simply knowing your community and engaging with the citizens.

The Del City Church of Christ Community Cup is an event that takes place every Tuesday morning from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. The church provides free donuts and coffee to the community as we as free fresh fruits and vegetable.

After the hectic schedule and finally going to the town-hall meeting made me realize how these meetings help our community grow into a better university. My wellness team went to different ones and we didn't collaborate in the same ideas but seen a few in our times that went that we thought were a great influence on today's community.

Since starting this opiate unit, I have learned a great deal about my community and the people who live in it. As a result of my work in this unit, I have paid more attention to the crisis in Scioto County, and have wanted to find a way to help.
