Operation Weed & Seed is a key component of the US Department of Justice Anti-Violence Program designed to “weed” out crime and “seed” in neighborhood restoration and services. ONYX has partnered with federal, state and local law enforcement and the criminal justice system as well as area human service agencies, businesses, churches and community residents to provide a safe and healthy environment for residents to live, work and raise children.

  Toledo West Weed & Seed has four subcommittees. Come to a meeting and bring your ideas for change and results:

Law Enforcement
Toledo Police Department, Lucas County Prosecutor’s Office, the US Attorney’s Office, and DEA coordinate services to reduce and prevent crime, drug-stings and community residents vigilantly protecting each other.
