The LAPF funds programs geared toward strengthening cooperative relationships between the LAPD and the many diverse communities of Los Angeles it serves in order to foster partnerships that enhance communication, trust, and public safety, including:

  • The Valley CARES (Crisis and Recovery Services) Family Justice Center, a centralized service center for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault that connects victims with advocates and resources to help navigate the complex judicial process.
  • The annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Breakfast, which celebrates the life and legacy of the influential civil rights leader, in order to affirm the important and positive relationship between the LAPD and the city’s African-American community.
  • "Look Again" Public Service Awareness Campaign to raise awareness of human trafficking activity and sex trafficking of minors in Los Angeles.  The campaign was also designed to foster community and connection within neighborhoods to proactively protect the public and young children. 
  • Harvard and South Park Community Safety Partnerships where officers focus on community engagement, schools/safe passages, critical enforcement, and youth programs,
