Concerned residents, clergy, and officials of Santa Monica, Venice, and LA were all in attendance Tuesday night as the brand new Police Chief of Santa Monica pledged to work regionally to eliminate gang violence.  For LA Voice, it was the second action on the issue in three months. Four members of Santa Monica's city council, including the mayor, agreed to organize a neighborhood watch program. In addition, the Chamber of Commerce committed to create a job program for youth, including training teens how to interview for employment opportunities.
