Community Safety & Well-Being
Our Dedication to Community Safety & Well-Being
Community Safety & Well-Being is committed to the principles of antiracism, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
We hold ourselves accountable to empower marginalized communities in order to eliminate disparities for all residents, affording them the opportunity to thrive in Adams County. We recognize the historical role government has played in perpetuating systemic racism and creating barriers to success. However, we also accept the responsibility that government has in creating positive, real, and lasting change in our communities. Thus, we lead with a social equity and justice lens to elevate people, improve systems, and strengthen neighborhoods.
