Legislative Black Caucus
Some area neighborhoods fail to provide protective environments for children to play safely without being exposed to violence and drugs. The Harlem Children’s Zone was set up to provide havens in a community with a history of social problems. The idea behind it is being used in other parts of the country as a template for helping communities provide children with safer options. Today, we discuss local efforts to mirror the success of this program. GUESTS -Rev. Sam Mann, St Mark Union Church -Senator Yvonne Wilson, 9th District of Kansas City
