Community Action Teams


Salt Lake City's Community Action Teams (CATs) are a multidisciplinary approach to solving community issues at the neighborhood level.

The teams are organized along the boundaries of the city's seven council districts. They meet weekly to discuss issues in their communities and to fashion collaborative, creative and comprehensive solutions to problems in the community.

Issues are referred to the teams from the community through the police department, city council office, mayor's office, city agencies, or community councils. These issues range from quality of life concerns, such as parking and code enforcement, to serious public safety issues including drive-by shootings, gang houses, and drug houses.

If you would like to contact the CAT team working with your neighborhood, or if you would like additional information about the CAT teams, please call 535-6333, Fax 535-6331, or TTY 535-6021.
