Harrogate and Knaresborough MP Andrew Jones, who is expected to attend Tuesday's meeting, said:
"These are incredibly difficult and deep-seated issues.
"Many of those involved have long-standing homelessness, mental health and addiction problems and both the government and the council have dedicated a lot of cash and resource to these issues.”
Harrogate neighbourhood policing inspector Nicola Colbourne said:
“We’re continuing to work closely with residents, Harrogate Borough Council’s community safety partnership, elected representatives and others to ensure any concerns of Harrogate residents are listened to and the community remains a very safe place to live and work."
A council spokesman said it was a private meeting.
