Teens affected by gun violence are invited to unite at the “It Takes All of Us” community event and put a stake in the ground against gun violence. The event will be held at Unity Point Park (900 Spring Hill Avenue) at 3 p.m. on Wednesday, April 20.
There will be posters at the event so teens can write messages about how gun violence has impacted their life and their city. All community members who want to stand up to end gun violence are also invited to attend.
Jones said “It Takes All of Us” is the slogan for the city’s long-term campaign against teen gun violence. Hired in March, one of Jones’ first tasks was completing a youth violence prevention strategic plan that will serve as a guide as he begins to work in the community. Having a dedicated youth violence prevention coordinator is part of the City of Mobile’s effort to reduce gun violence. The position aligns with the goals of Operation Echo Stop, which launched earlier this year to curb gun violence with a focus on prevention, deterrence, compliance, and detection.
