I’m a 62 year old resident of Pittsfield and Berkshire County. I moved here in 1973 and have spent the majority of my life in the Berkshires. I fell in love with this area and most of my 7 brothers and sisters reside here. I raised my daughter and two step children, and watched them succeed through our local schools. I attended Crosby Jr High School and Taconic High School.
By bringing awareness and prevention programs to our schools, we can help stop crime before it happens. Children make up 40% of our population but 100% of our future. It is time we give them the knowledge to live a life avoiding crime
