Most people who engage in criminal activity do so out of the feeling of hopelessness and desperation where actions of survival kicks-in. Addressing the vulnerabilities prevalent in our community “head-on” is the first step to treating with, and eventually solving the problem. This is where the Belmont Patriots come in. We have created community development programs that take us to the areas of focus. In order to remove the dependency on “BIG GOVERNMENT”, the Belmont Patriot's approach is one that utilizes volunteer resources. There is both a need and a demand for residents to return to playing that significant role in their community as not just stakeholders, but stewards.
Thanks to our 700+ FaceBook group Patriots, over the past few years we have been able to provide disadvantaged children and families with hope and the opportunity to break the cycle of poverty.
