The Partnership for a Safer Cleveland is an independent, non-profit organization dedicated to increasing safety and providing developmental opportunities for young people and communities through collaborative, educational and programmatic initiatives.

The experts at the Partnership serve as consultants and resources to public and private groups working to prevent and lessen violence in their communities. The Partnership uses their broad experience, training and relationships to bring key leaders from the justice system, law enforcement, schools, business, community groups and the media together to help solve problems, design effective programs and create policies that these organizations and agencies eventually implement themselves long term.
