The NYPD is starting a community greeter program, as a way to make visits to the precinct more successful for those who need services. The position, which many new greeters started on Monday, is called Community Guide, and is meant to deepen the relationship between each precinct and its community. The mayor announced it in his daily press conference on Sept. 30.
“We get complaints about individuals walking to present which can be very intimidating in nature to begin with, and not being greeted in a timely fashion, in a courteous fashion,” said Juanita Holmes, Chief of Patrol.
