MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A town hall on reducing gun violence in Memphis is taking place Saturday.
Tennessee State Sen. London Lamar is hosting the ‘Gun Violence Prevention Town Hall’ Saturday, April 9, 2022, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at New Direction Christian Church. That’s at 6230 Winchester Road.
Memphis Police Chief Cerelyn CJ Davis, Executive Director of Shelby County’s Office of Reentry DeAndre Brown, and Riverside Missionary Baptist Church pastor Reverend Reginald Boyce are all on hand.
Sen. Lamar said she hopes the town hall gives community members the chance to address concerns and bring their ideas for solutions.
“We want safe neighborhoods for our kids and families because it doesn’t matter what you have or what you’ve earned in your life if it’s all gone in a second,” said Sen. Lamar.
