The Resurrection Project (TRP) hosted a Camp Out for Peace<\/em>\u00a0event to fight violence in the Back of the Yards neighborhood. On October 7th<\/sup>, youth, elected officials, and community partners came together to honor the memory of the lives lost to gun violence in neighborhoods throughout Chicago. \u00a0The event took place outside of TRP’s Casa Hidalgo office that provides a variety of\u00a0services and resources to residents in the Back of the Yards community.<\/p>\n

This year, in Back of the Yards there have been 124 victims of gun violence. The most recent victim was Naome Zuber, a senior at Curie high school who wanted to major in criminal justice. According to the Chicago Tribune, to date there have been 4,368\u00a0shootings <\/a>in various communities in Chicago.<\/p>\n

Berto Aguayo, TRP\u2019s new Safety and Nonviolence Community Organizer, is overseeing peace\u00a0efforts in the Back of the Yards neighborhood, where he grew up. His first memory of Back of the Yards was hanging out on the porch, trading hot wheel cars with other children, and playing soccer in the alley. Taking the lead and organizing TRP\u2019s Camp Out for Peace<\/em> event was an important milestone for him.<\/p>\n

A few years ago, Berto had fallen in with the wrong crowd and joined a gang. He was lucky to be able to leave the gang and transform his life. However, for many youth like Berto, this is not the case. Many are still leading a life of violence and negatively impacting the communities where they live. Today, Berto is passionate about creating and implementing peace and safety initiatives in his neighborhood.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur goal is to work with residents to build community leaders and activate them to make positive changes in the neighborhood,\u201d said Berto. \u201cIt\u2019s also important to continuously work with youth and help them become peace makers\u00a0in the community.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"campout_candle\"The Camp Out for Peace<\/em> event helped to engage residents in a discussion on how to reclaim streets and get guns out of the neighborhood. Hard working families who live in Back of the Yards make up the majority of the community and deserve to live in a peaceful and safe environment.<\/p>\n

Twenty-community organizations united for the event. Local businesses and residents donated everything from sandwiches, hot chocolate, to Air Jordan gym shoes. The day of the event, 200 community leaders and residents came to the vigil to honor the victims of gun violence. Neighborhood children also marched with their parents holding up signs calling for peace and an end to gun violence. The turn out demonstrated people\u2019s investment in grassroots peace movements.<\/p>\n

Supporters of the peace and safety event also included Commander Godsel and the Chicago Police Department and State Representative Elect (2nd<\/sup> District) Theresa Mah. The peaceful event demonstrated residents\u2019 commitment to building healthy and safe communities.<\/p>\n

This event is one of a series of peace and safety actions that TRP will be organizing and participating in throughout the month of October \u00a0along with community partners in the neighborhood.
