The Ambassadors at the Downtown Reno Partnership patrol the 110 blocks of its district boundaries 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to keep Downtown Reno Safe and Clean. Hear from two of our long-time Ambassadors, Jason and Xavier, about the work the do and why they find it meaningful.
Earlier this year, Roscoe, a Downtown Reno Partnership Ambassador, was alerted about a community member who was identified as unconscious inside a restroom. Roscoe’s first-aid training kicked in and recognized this as a likely drug overdose. He dialed 911 and administered naloxone. Crews arrived and were able to further assess the situation and provide care. There’s no doubt that Roscoe’s quick-thinking, fast-acting, and willingness to intervene during a medical emergency, made the difference for that individual. REMSA honored Roscoe with a Community Caregiver award and thank him for taking action.
“This is real personal for me, Drugs have
taken so much from me my whole life.”

“Once you begin to deal with the small problems in neighborhoods, you begin to empower those neighborhoods.”
For David, his work as an outreach ambassador is even more personal because he was homeless on the same streets he patrols today. It all happened after a monumental relapse, one that came 10.5 years after he had found sobriety. Ambassador David holds a special place in his heart for the people he helps because he knows what it is to be them. The DRP worked with David to get him the help he needed.
“I know a lot of them out there.
I try to be a good example.”
