Stop And Shake Mount Vernon

   
" It takes a village to raise a child , however it takes lots of loving relationships to create a village.. Lets get connected " - Hector Santiago


As many of you know StopAndShake has gotten lots of recognition throughout Westchester for its positive and effective ways of bridging the communication gap in police departments and underserviced communitys.

Yonkers StopAndShake chapter is the most successful, well organized and overall welcomed throughout the county. This is thanks to the time, funds, and constant commitment to community building we've been able to put into it. Were happily able to say that it's an effective "Social Icebreaker" and building relationships one handshake at a time in the city of Yonkers.

Our main focus this summer is Mount Vernon . Since its implementation in the community last fall of 2016 lots of things fell under due to the constant change in the administration and few communication errors however the locals , few businesses, along with the dedication of Sergeant Jennifer carpenter, Detective Dave Clark and Councilman Andre Wallace it has kept afloat, active , productive .

Our mission thoughout the summer of 2017 will be to orginize the foundation and structure of the program leading to the new school year. We will set up a few key elements throughout the city to raise the awareness on the importance of building relationships, community, and install the "Love thy neighbor" mentailty through effective communication and networking. which overall will enhance the quality of life and make mount vernon a safer and more connected city.

Some of the key ingredients will be

Monthly StopAndShake Stations throughout the City.

These stations will be set up with giveaways, information and hosted by local activist, business owners and overall police. The purpose is to open up a neutral platform where open communication can take place

Monthly networking events.

These events will help break stereotype and bridge communication gaps because of the diversity in ages,race,and occupation though a veriety of attendees and facilitators invited .
