Healing the Wounds OF VIOLENCE: A Community Forum with Dr. John Rich

Wednesday, May 28

7:00 p.m.

Honickman Learning Center and Comcast Technology Labs

1936 N. Judson Street

(between 23rd and 24th Streets, between Berks and Norris Streets)

Urban violence is not simply a criminal justice problem, but one that is often related to deep trauma – particularly among young African American men. This forum will explore how a community can respond to trauma as a way of healing and building peace. Dr. John Rich is the Chair of the Department of Health Management and Policy at Drexel University. He has extensive experience in issues of community health and inner-city youth. We will also hear from community activists and family members who have lost loved ones to violence.

THIS EVENT IS FREE. Refreshments will be served

Co-sponsored by the Jewish Community Relations Council of the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia
