The Shinnyo Center staff supports a variety of initiatives with the New York City Police Department — serving as an official community partner in the new neighborhood policing initiative, offering meditation, and engaging in Buddhist clergy liaison activities.

Initiatives

The Shinnyo Center for Meditation and Well-being works with a number of New York City organizations in both one-time and
on-going engagements. The Shinnyo Center for Meditation and Well-being cooperates with a wide variety of public, private, social service,
