Bellflower, California

Bellflower Against Gangs in Bellflower, California was founded in 1991 by members of the community as a reaction to an increase in crime. The program works specifically to reduce gang activity and graffiti. Bellflower Recreation in Motion (BRIM) was developed to address the limitations of having only 51 acres of city park space. To expand recreational opportunities for children, BRIM travels to neighborhoods not in close proximity to parks and provides day activities for children. Caring Connections makes health care and social services more accessible to low-income and underserved children and families by acting as the community clearinghouse for these resources.
