Summer doesn’t officially begin until June, but the Chicago Police Department announced they’re activating what they call the “nucleus” for citywide deployment of safety personnel and resources: the Summer Operations Center.
“We want everyone in the city to be safe and to enjoy the city,” CPD Chief of Patrol Brian McDermott said during a news conference Friday. “But we strongly encourage any teens coming to the downtown area or to our lakefront beaches to be supervised by a responsible adult and act respectfully.”
McDermott said the center, which is staffed by CPD and OEMC employees, coordinates citywide resource deployments from police and other departments to help reduce violence across the city. The CPD said its Bureau of Patrol has held tabletop exercises and drills to ensure an “appropriate police response” to active situations, and the department is working with community groups to provide safe spaces for youth and families.
