Coming Together Block By Block in NoPo

Community policing, everybody talks about it, but who practices it??? In North Portland, a number of blocks are organized, not only to combat crime and decrease the fear of crime, but to develop a sense of community. Every first Tuesday in August neighbors throughout North Portland gather together on their streets for block parties.
