MN HEALS 2.0 Issues First Report

MN HEALS 2.0 has released its initial report, Convener Mike Freeman announced Thursday. The report outlines the efforts that have been taken to address juvenile carjackings in Minneapolis. It also sets forth goals to address serious violent crime in Minneapolis and nearby suburbs.

"I want to thank the members of MN HEALS 2.0," Freeman said. "These leaders from both the public and private sectors have recognized the importance of a coordinated approach to public safety and have taken the time to address crime at a systemic level. There is still work to be done, but understand that we will refuse to tolerate violent crime in Hennepin County."

MN HEALS 2.0 is a cross-sector effort to address violent crime in Hennepin County. Its members include law enforcement, faith leaders, the business community, and local elected officials.
