Community & Law Enforcement: Bridging the Gap
Our free Community & Law Enforcement classes help Jacksonville families feel at home and stay safe, and they build trust between families and law enforcement. Families can join one class or both.
Culture & Law: moving to a new country means learning a new way of life. These adjustment classes help families who are new to the U.S. understand how schools, healthcare and the workplace work, and the laws and rights that protect you and your children.
Family Safety: led by a law enforcement expert, these classes for adults and parents cover how human trafficking and exploitation happen, the warning signs to watch for, keeping children safe on social media and online, and avoiding scams that target families.
