Active since the implementation of the first Weed & Seed grant in 1992, the DA's Office has been a strong source of support and the office maintains statistics on convictions and punishments that are Weed & Seed related. Personnel from the DA's Office serve on an Epidemiology Work Group, which collects, tracks, and geo-maps crime, public health, education, and economic development community indicators to respond to trends. Additionally, the office participates in planning effective strategies to empower residents in problem solving and is proactive in the development of special projects such as the "gang-free zone" program, which prohibits gang members from congregating in certain neighborhood areas.  The office also coordinates activities for Victims Rights Week in April each year.
