\nPromoting peace during the spring and summer months is critical because it\u2019s when violent crime escalates. News sources report most killings in Chicago takes place when the weather starts getting warmer and are a constant problem impacting communities. Faith in Action is part of a city-wide effort to promote peace in Chicago.
\n\u201cWorking with youth and the 12th<\/sup> District Police Department gives us an opportunity to build trust and start conversations about community violence,\u201d says Sandy Chavez Cook County State\u2019s Attorney Office, Anita Alvarez. \u201cEvents like this are important across the city to address the issue violence.\u201d
\nThis event is one of several events that focus on community safety. The Resurrection has a long history of working with youth through our Resurrection Basketball League initiative. This is a weekly summer tournament held on different streets in Pilsen that are considered hot spots for violence.
\n\u201cThe goal is to reclaim these blocks as areas of peace, fun, and safety for youth. These types of events also help introduce youth to other resources to help them become leaders in the community,\u201d says Henry Cervantes, TRP Safety Organizer
\nAdditional things The Resurrection Project and its community partners have been doing is coordinating efforts through the Pilsen Family Task Force. Organizations that are part of this task force include: Cook County States Attorney, Anita Alvarez, <\/strong>Chicago Police Department, 12th<\/sup> district, <\/strong>25th<\/sup> Ward, Alderman Danny Solis, <\/strong>St. Pius V Parish, <\/strong>YMCA, Youth Safety and Violence Prevention, <\/strong>Central States Ser, <\/strong>Mujeres Latinas en Accion, <\/strong>Union League Boys and Girls Club, <\/strong>Pilsen Neighbors Community Council, <\/strong>GOAL Corps
\nTogether they have been holding a series of actions that include the following: Facilitating non-violence workshops for youth, organizing peace and safety walks in the community, and hosting events like the police vs youth basketball game.
\n\u201cThings families can do together include participating in public events, getting to know their neighbors and youth, and reporting violence. Community ownership is key to building healthy communities,\u201d says Erendira Rendon, TRP Lead Organizer. \u201cThis means residents and their families are encouraged to be invested in their neighborhood by being active participants in their community.\u201d
\nFor TRP community safety is a priority in Pilsen. It is a community of youth filled with potential and it\u2019s everyone\u2019s responsibility to make sure we are providing them with the opportunities they need to succeed.
