ERCPCP is a non-profit organization and is tax exempt under section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code
ERCPCP was founded in 1999 to devise a collaborative and wholistic approach to address youth violence and related issues. East of the River Clergy Police Community Partnership is a long name but one that explains who we are – a faith based program that partners with the police and community to prevent crime East of the River.
We work with the police but policing alone cannot solve the problem. We receive support from the government but government does not have the answers. We enlist the support of churches and community organizations but they are overwhelmed by the need. Therefore, we believe it will take a sustained effort by all of these entities as well as individuals to make a difference in our community.
We have found it difficult to address the serious issues that our youth face without more financial resources. Every Little bit helps!
YOU can help us stem the tide of violence that is consuming our community by sending in your contribution today.
