State Senator Mattie Hunter will be collaborating with Adler Professional School of Psychology and other public and private organizations in a panel discussion focusing on the impacts of social factors on urban communities. Different Englewood organizations will be represented in the panel discussion and members of the community are encouraged to attend.
The discussion will focus on efforts to form a solutions-based action plan to strengthen economic development, better education opportunities and lower crime rates in Englewood. Due to a crumbling infrastructure and one of the highest crime rates in the nation, it is now more important than ever to bring the Englewood community together in its endeavor to seek change.
Adler Professional School of Psychology has found many negative factors that impact individuals in low-income, high-crime communities can have a profound effect at every stage of life. An effort of Adler Professional School of Psychology, the summit is an attempt to collaborate with government officials, community organizations and citizens to overturn negative social factors that debilitate the Englewood community. Senator Hunter will participate by discussing her legislative efforts in Springfield that have centered on providing educational opportunities, job creation and community rehabilitation.
The summit coordinators ask those planning to attend to R.S.V.P. for the event by contacting Theresa Reilly via e-mail
