A staff of approximately ten Ambassadors carry out duties, which address basic cleanliness issues, such as litter, graffiti, weeds, power washing and a wide variety of projects which change the outward environment of downtown Albuquerque. Safety Ambassadors patrol downtown on foot and bike serving as a visible deterrent to unwanted activity, observing and reporting. All staff members are trained to be Ambassadors of downtown and are empowered to go out of their way to provide great service in an effort to shape positive perceptions of downtown.
