On Saturday June 29th, from 12p-4p @ Stage AE (400 N. Shore Drv.), Stop The Violence-Pittsburgh will conduct a Community PEACE Aware Day that will bring together some 20 grass-root groups to address violence within the communities and provide a platform to the local agencies and organizations who offer viable, reputable and well thought-of experiences and options to children, youth and young adults in their development towards adult hood. These organizations range from Music Institutes, Victims Centers, Mental Health Specialist, Domestic Violence Groups to HIV advocates. We are offering a universal platform to illustrate to the community the high quality supportive services that are available.
The Day will consist of motivational speakers on conflict resolution and anti-bullying, resource info, live entertainment, food and various presentations that we hope will be a model for the State and Country. The event program will include a "Gone But Not Forgotten" commemoration segment and roll call with family members of the murdered victims of 2012/13 with Inter-faith Religious Leaders, local community leaders and advocacy organizations along with a Community "Difference Makers" program highlighting those individuals who are fighting these issues daily.
We will also be giving the Democratic and Republican Mayoral nominee an opportunity to address the audience and speak about their programs to combat violence inside our communities.
