3; Los Angeles Mayor's Office By December 31, 2009 the Los Angeles Mayor should direct the Director of the GRYD Office to define the goals and objectives for non-GRYD City gang reduction programs. Response: The recommendation has not yet been implemented, but will be implemented in the future. The Mayor's GRYD Office does not presently have direct oversight of departments such as the Lds Angeles Police Department (LAPD), Recreation and Parks Department, and Community Development Department (CDD) that administer gang reduction programs throughout the City. Alternatively, the GRYD Office has created the GRYD Cabinet whose primary purpose is to improve coordination and collaboration of gang reduction strategies in the City. In the coming months, we will convene a 2-day strategic planning process with both City and County leaders to establish a citywide strategic plan that delineates specific goals and objectives, roles and responsibilities of City departments and measures of accountability for gang reduction.
