NORTH HOLLYWOOD : Workshop on Crime Prevention Planned
To help senior citizens protect themselves from crime, a workshop giving tips for preventing attacks, burglary and other threats will be held June 22.
The workshop, sponsored by the Los Angeles Department of Aging, will focus on ways to guard against assaults, unlawful entry, elder abuse and fire. Information will also be available on how to respond to an emergency, how victims are emotionally affected by crime and how counseling may help.
Although the free workshop was designed for seniors, who are particularly vulnerable to crime, all ages are welcome to attend. Through speakers, handouts and safety demonstrations, those attending can learn about a variety of crime-prevention programs and resources in the Los Angeles area.
The workshop will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the East Valley Multi-Purpose Senior Center, First Presbyterian Church, 5000 Colfax Ave., North Hollywood.
For more information, call (818) 766-5165. Low-price senior lunches will be available. To order lunch, call (818) 985-6675.
