COLUMBUS, Ohio-Five Columbus City Schools and over 100 students participated in the Teen and Police Service (TAPS) Program, aimed at fostering strong relationships between youth and law enforcement.
The program emphasizes solutions through education, skill building, and service learning. Students, like Myesha White, find it engaging and beneficial. Amidst concerns about teen violence, officers like George White see the program as a way to refocus youth and potentially mentor future officers. Graduates receive certificates, and efforts continue in middle schools to sustain positive impacts.
