Here’s Our Why:
3D CAC Public Safety Leaders Meetings are in-depth discussions with MPD, Public Safety Interested Community Members, Council Members, DC Agency Heads, and Business industry experts who provide insights and guide a collaborative, results-oriented dialogue focusing on creating real, actionable solutions for Our Community.
In our 3D CAC Advocacy and Social Justice and Public Safety efforts, we work towards promoting policies that promote equality, justice and public safety, and the well-being of all community members in Washington, DC. We advocate for social change, address systemic inequalities, and work towards creating a safer and more inclusive community for everyone.
3D CAC’S Public Safety practices and services helps to prevent violence by setting focused and strategic enforcement priorities, advocating for policies and supporting legislation, creating educational initiatives, fostering ongoing prevention strategies and effective deterrence methods, enforcement collaboration with law enforcement, and supporting legal efforts while measuring the results.
3D CAC is located in the 3rd Police District of Washington, DC and the Chair is charged with providing the 3rd District Commander with a Community Action Plan and recommendations from the community on the public’s safety problems and police service needs.
3D CAC hosts Regular Public Safety Leaders Meetings at the Third District MPD Police Station on the last Thursday of each month which allows residents, DC Agencies, Elected Leaders and Business Owners to meet and discuss police-related issues with the district commander. The meetings also provide an opportunity for police officials to assess the impact of their crime-fighting efforts on the community.
In addition to the 3D CAC Public Safety Leaders Meetings the 3D CAC Chair is on the Chief of Police’s Citizens Advisory Council and provides the Chief of Police with input and advice on matters affecting the entire Department.
3D CAC’s goal is to make our city a safer place for all us to live, work and visit.
All Public Safety Ambassadors and Block Captains Must Complete Training.

3D CAC Public Safety Leaders Meeting – Calling All Public Safety Leaders!
Greetings and Salutations Neighbors!

Neighbors,
In this wonderful month of September we welcome all of the wonderful students back to school and the fall fantastic activities throughout the city. This is a great time for all of us to learn something new through Public Safety Training.
We had the honor to spend time training residents and businesses on various ways to keep themselves and their homes and businesses safe. We trained on CPR, De-Escalation, Situational Awareness and Home Security Techniques.
We joined Our Public Safety Partner CSOSA in a Public Safety Forum highlighting the pivotal role that residents play in shaping and supporting public safety within the Third District.
We also joined Our Attorney General of Washington, DC to celebrate our young people who are heading in the right direction by Becoming Champions Rising To The Challenge. All Of Your Awesome Public Safety Efforts Are Highly Appreciated!
