Marlborough United
In 2023 the MCC formed the Marlborough United for Crime & Violence Prevention task force, modeled after Omaha360 and KC360 approaches to violent crime reduction. Prior to that we had a Task Force focused on sharing actions residents could take, for example, lock packages in your trunk, and turn on lights at night.
Marlborough United goes a step farther than that, looking at the root causes of crime in the area by gathering information from residents and others in the area, and then working with them to form and implement solutions.
We’d love to have you participate in the process by sharing your thoughts on the issues.
