While the city continues to experience record-breaking homicides, Philadelphians are developing ways to control and prevent gun violence. Every day, community-led violence prevention programs are successfully addressing community trauma and intervening in conflict, despite lacking the appropriate funding from local government to sustain their efforts.
Join Reclaim Philadelphia, Free Press, and WHYY as we explore funding what works with community leaders on the frontline of the crisis.
Panelists will include leaders from the following organizations: EMIR Healing Center, YEAH Philly, Mann Up, and Sankofa Healing Studio.
