Client Testimonials

I enjoyed the information here because it gave us a pretty good local insight into things that can be done within our community and some ways of trying to get that accomplished. It gives us some national information and some data locally and from our state, which would help us to alleviate crime within our community. Very good workshop, very well-informed presenters

Irma Rogers MLK Community Development Corporation

One of the most impactful things that I got from today was the fact that, you know, oftentimes just as a citizen, what can I do? How can I make a difference? And many of the intervention and points that were made today, excited me, gave me inspiration and made me think of what I can do to make a difference and how I can support others who can make a difference.

Michael Riordan Shreveport Citizens United

This was an amazing workshop. I mean I came here thinking one thing, but I found a whole lot of information. It's one of the best programs, best workshops I've ever been in my life. It opened up my eyes to a number of things, and I'm on board. I'll be working with them. They can call me, I'm in. I'm gonna take it to the church, to the city and to my neighborhood. It was great.

Pastor James Green City Councilman

The workshop was absolutely engaging. I found it to be a very encouraging, very enlightening, and the information was powerful. It was connecting, but it was at real time. So we got a chance to see some of our best experts deliver insight, data, statistics, things that are so relevant for us here in the city. And, it was almost breathing in a measure of hope that you rarely get to see. They were truly professionals and I'm, I'm thankful that I had an opportunity to participate.

Dr. Jerome Cocks Shreveport Citizens United

I believe in community action and being part of the solution to the problem. If everybody takes the time, turn to their brother and sister next to them and help them out instead of pointing fingers and what's in it for me, it'll be a better place to live. So, this is a really great seminar, a little great information that we can share and help each

Larry Leavitt

I thought it was well done. I was informed. I was motivated, excited about the possibility. A lot of meetings I've been to where they analyze the problem, they don't give us any clear cut way to solve the problem. This was very informative, at least he gave us a road map on how to solve a problem. All the presenters were articulate and intelligent and they kept it simple and I'm glad of that. I Learned a lot about the system and I also Learned a lot about myself, controlling my emotions, you know and I was free to speak my mind and be candid

Rev. Asriel McLain

I was so excited to be here today at the Community Campus. I Learned so much from the esteemed speakers that you have, down to the parent with lived experience. I too would love to see us have a more resilient community, which means that we need to actually work on reducing violence in our community. I think they brought a lot of solutions here to the sheriff's department about what that looks like and how it can be done and that it's a journey that includes all of us and I think that was the most important part.
