ACCESS CODE 491278
NATIONAL GANG CONFERENCE
March   27, 2017
7 P.M. EST – 9 P.M. EST
A gang truce can take place across our nation as leaders bring their ideas forward to discuss and act on.  An infrastructure is being set up to help people turn their lives around.  The discussion has already begun in places like Chicago and it continues here in this conference.  Humboldt Park in Chicago has its gang problems and people are now putting out the word that another child should not be killed and gangs should make a truce.  We will hear those voices and seek the wise voices of others in this discussion.  The outreach to gangs is taking place in other states as well.  Find out more by joining the call.
