Why:
The San Fernando Valley Coalition on Gangs is a community coalition of stakeholders, made up of schools, businesses, neighborhood organizations, city government agencies, and homeowner groups.

The coalition was originally organized by the LAPD, recognizing that police departments cannot solve the gang problem alone.

The purpose of the forum is to coordinate a response to gangs and gang crime from the various stakeholders in the community.

Gang officers will make a presentation outlining gang activity in the Canoga Park area.
