Safety in the District
The HMD Safety Team is a high-profile fixture within our district, easily identified by their two-tone yellow and black shirts. The Safety Team provides daily patrol services to maintain safety within the District.
AGS, Inc., supplies the Hollywood Media District with a conscientious team of officers trained to patrol by bike and foot beat. They serve the community by often being first responders and liaisons between the community and other city agencies. Our safety team also serve as outreach ambassadors for our local unhoused population. Considering the number of service providers just blocks from our district, it makes sense to coordinate with non-profit experts in the field.
We are here to assist. Contact us for all Safety and Nuisance concerns.
