Basseterre, St. Kitts, April 26, 2019 (RSCNPF): The recently-held “Protecting Our Children” community meeting garnered support from two significant political figures who lent their voices to the call to get young people involved in positive activities.

Parliamentary Representative for Constituency #3, the Honourable Konris Maynard, echoed his support for the community policing initiative.

“I want to thank all of the members of the society who came out and I also want to say thanks to Officer Percival and Isles for their leadership. There is a lot that needs to be done and we have to get to the grassroots. We have to get to our young people, especially our young men, to help them understand that we want to see the best for them. I fully support any efforts in the fight against crime and making our society a better one,” Mr. Maynard said.
