Village Takeback is a precinct-based decriminalization and community takeback program that brings live, on-site community oversight to the NYPD and the justice process. It is an unprecedented opportunity to reimagine misdemeanors resolutions in Brooklyn where we are looking to intervene, divert and take back our youth from the precinct that results not only in dismissal or decline to prosecute, but more importantly, in life connections that change lives journeys, conditions and futures.
