What is the Community Ambassadors Program?
The Community Ambassadors Program is a safety program designed to bridge tensions in the community due to cultural or linguistic differences. Administered by the Office of Civic Engagement & Immigrant Affairs (OCEIA), a division of the City Administrator’s Office, this program was initiated by community leaders and advocates concerned about public safety and is a partnership with the Omega Boys Club, SFPD, MTA, Mayor’s Office, OCEIA and community-based organizations, with partial program support from Lennar Corporation and AT&T.
OCEIA currently manages two mandated projects of the Community Ambassadors Program: a permanent community safety program in District 10 and a year-long pilot in the Central Market area between 5th and 12th Streets.
