The conference will bring together over 200 students from local high schools to examine the issues that effect not only them, but their community. At the conclusion of the conference a summary of the students solutions will be forwarded to the Office of the Mayor of the City of Los Angeles.
In addition to problem solving the teens will participate in drunk driving prevention workshops along with a presentation of the LAPD's Use of Force policies and will be provided the opportunity to experience the Department's Force Options Simulator.
