Effects of Violence on the Community

The South Pittsburgh Coalition for Peace holds quarterly meetings per year and an annual forum, “The Effects of Violence on the Community.” Through these initiatives we address the violence in the community and implement strategies that come out of these group meetings and awareness forums.

We have national speakers such as, Bishop Darryl Harris from Cease Fire Detroit, Michigan and Sharon Cromwell, Everytown for Gun Safety City Gun Violence Prevention Manager and also Keynote Speaker, Professor Toya Jones, University of Pittsburgh School of Social Work.
