🎙️ PCITI NATIONAL DROP-IN CALL

The next PCITI National Drop-In Call is Next Wednesday, June 24, 2026. Hosted by our core partners at CBPS Collective

This month's topic: Preparing the Next Generation: Youth Leadership, Mentorship & Community-Based Public Safety.

As community-based public safety continues to evolve, the question of how we prepare and protect the next generation is at the center of the work. This conversation is for the practitioners, mentors, and leaders thinking about how to develop young people into the next wave of community safety professionals, peacemakers, and change agents.

We will be discussing youth leadership, the role of mentorship in violence prevention, and how community-based public safety can intentionally invest in the development of the youth who will carry this work forward.

This call is open to certified PCITI Alumni and Members.

💪🏽 WARRIORS AT WORK |

Warriors, BUILD-PCITI was recently with our beloved family and special partners out of Newark, NCST Newark Community Street Team, for a Level 2 Refresher that brought our practitioners back to sharpen what they have built and continue carrying the methodology forward!

The BUILD program remains committed to developing practitioners through ongoing training, refinement and professional growth. Led by our National Master Lead Trainer, Bro. Daamin Ali , this refresher reinforced the skill sets, protocols, and disciplined intervention practices that keep practitioners ready, sharp, and effective in the field.

This work is bigger than any one person. It requires continuous learning, refinement, accountability, and a commitment to excellence. The communities we serve deserve practitioners who remain prepared and equipped to carry the methodology forward and continue building sustainable community capacity.

Together we BUILD. ✊🏾

Big salute to NCST, Mayor Ras J. Baraka , and all of those who are playing a role in the transformation of Newark. Real work is getting done by real people who are genuinely committed to the cause of community safety and community ownership.
