The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Georgia has implemented a Drug Market Intervention (DMI) for the English Avenue Neighborhood. To date, DMIs have been successfully implemented in 36 other neighborhoods nationwide. With technical assistance from Michigan State University (via funding from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Justice Programs’ Bureau of Justice Assistance), the first steps of the process have already been completed. On June 3rd at Westside Works, the technical assistance team presented to a group of community stakeholders about the DMI and how to move further along in the process.
