United Coalition
Association (hosted) Anti-Gang Executive Brunch meeting at Kips Bay Boys and Girls Club in the Bronx, N.Y,
at this meeting were all the elected officials in the Bronx 18th
city council district – City Councilmember Annabel Palma, Rep for Congressman J. Crowley, Assemblyman P. Rivera, Senator
R. Diaz, UFT, Scan New York, Council for Unity, 43rd police dept, Community Board 9, Weed and Seed and the District
Attorney Office. We sat down with ALL the H.S. and J.H.S. Principals in the district of Bronx Community
Board # 9. This meeting was to address the
issues regarding gangs and gang recruitment in and around our schools. All the schools don’t have this issue, but this
is a big problem in the Bronx. If you were at this meeting, what would you have let us know, or do you think
these kinds of meetings work ?
