I’ve invited the Reverend Judie Shepherd-Gore of Cure the Streets and Lauren Haggerty from the Office of the Attorney General to join me in a Ward 1 conversation about preventing violence, especially youth violence. Both are deeply involved in prevention and intervention efforts. Audience members will also have a chance to ask questions.

Monday, April 24, 6 to 7:30 pm, in the Cardozo High School lecture hall, 1200 Clifton St. NW. No registration is necessary.

Later that week I’ll be joining the 3rd District MPD Citizen Advisory Committee meeting, along with representatives from MPD, to hear from residents and speak about public safety issues, including new legislation I am introducing that week.

The 3D CAC meeting will take place Thursday, April 27, 7 to 8 pm at the 3rd District Station, 1620 V St. NW. The meeting is open to the public and no registration is necessary.
