The Rochester City Council could consider plans at its Tuesday meeting for neighborhood ambassador programs in the Monroe and Lyell Avenue areas.
Rochester , N.Y. —
"The city overall has been looking a way to kind of just engage in the neighborhoods and engage who I consider the experts — the people actually living through the opioid epidemic, homelessness, all sorts of other issues," said Andy Carey, the co-founder of MC Collaborative, a private business that offers social work support to businesses.
The city unanimously approved pilot neighborhood ambassador programs on North Clinton and Jefferson avenues in November 2023.
