G.A.I.N. (Getting Arizona Involved in Neighborhoods) is a day for Arizona to join forces and promote awareness, safety and neighborhood unity. G.A.I.N. showcases the importance of police-community partnerships and citizen involvement in our fight for a safer Arizona. On G.A.I.N. day (third Saturday in October), we invite neighborhoods to come together and make their community a safer, better place to live.
We invite everyone to come out to our meetings and get to know everyone. We have guest speakers like Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery and others. Mr. Montgomery introduced the Bureau Chief for Community Based Prosecution, Treena Kay. Treena gave some overview of the size of the county and how the County Attorney’s office has been reorganized to cover geographic regions. Mr. Montgomery gave a description of the submittal process and provided statistics on how criminal justice in Arizona is doing. Arizona is a treatment first state. Voters approved mandatory treatment for the first two possession or use offenses.
