Overview

Mt. Hood residents are tired of the crime and inconveniences brought by substance abuse and local drug dealers.
We have Had It!
with:
  • deteriorating neighborhoods
  • robbery
  • vandalism
  • gunshots
  • violence
  • loose animals
  • uncared for children

We’re tired of cars speeding along the once-quiet mountain roads, and we don’t want to be afraid to walk down our own streets, by day or at night. We realize, though, that the police cannot do everything themselves. So we, the residents of the Mt. Hood Corridor, have formed a volunteer coalition against drug crime in our community. This coalition seeks to support local law-enforcement and create a safe environment for residents.
